How Spreading a Culture of Service Uplifts Communities

From lifting pallets to keeping your warehouse organized, a forklift is crucial in any warehouse operation. But did you know that forklifts can also be used to uplift communities and improve lives? This is something Arnold Machinery, a heavy equipment supplier for mining, construction, material handling, and farming, knows firsthand. For the past four years, Arnold Machinery has loaned forklifts free of charge to Safelite, a corporate sponsor of our annual toy drive initiatives. The forklifts are used to load and unload donations and toys off delivery trucks. Because of their generosity, we can serve underprivileged Colorado families and children more effectively and efficiently.  Culture of Service So why does this large organization that serves high-level decision-makers across multiple industries support our causes? It's because this company has fostered a culture of service at all levels, whether it is with their stakeholders, customers, or even underprivileged families in their communities. Arnold Machinery employee Britten Harmon explains, 

"We believe in supporting Kenzi's Causes because they strive to change and improve the lives of families and children in Colorado. Anything we can do that makes their jobs easier lifts the whole community." 

This commitment to service has been ingrained in the company since its inception, and it motivates the company to seek to create positive change in the lives of those they touch. As Britten Harmon describes it, 

“When you spread a culture of giving and lift your community through service and donations, everyone benefits.” 

Culture of Service We couldn't agree more and are beyond grateful for Arnold Machinery's support and dedication to helping us create more equality for low-income families throughout Colorado.

Kenzi's Causes

In 2007, Jessica Bachus started Dolls for Daughters®, after her daughter Kenzi was stillborn. She created an annual holiday Toy Drive for Colorado children who would not otherwise have toys during the holidays. Today, Kenzi's Causes collects more than 100,000 toys, stocking stuffers, books, toothbrush/toothpaste kits, backpacks, lunch boxes and other items to change the lives of children in Colorado through our programs. At this annual event, families are also provided with community resources to help improve their lives and the lives of their children.
