Honda Foundation gives away $14 million in donations.

Honda Foundation – Motor companies can often come in for a lot of criticism about greedy corporate profit. But many companies run charitable foundations that are vital for the community and the disadvantaged.

The Honda Foundation has been around since 1992 and over the 2021/2022 period has donated over $14 million to a number of recipients.

Campaigns were run in conjunction with Movember, Starlight Children’s Foundation, White Ribbon Australia, Head Space, Camp Quality and the Leukemia Foundation.

The foundation has supported The Kidney Foundation for work to modify their ‘Big Red Kidney Bus’, which helps to enable patients with severe kidney issues and requiring dialysis to come onto the bus for treatment.

For every new Honda vehicle sold in Australia, $30 is donated to The Honda Foundation.

Other companies that have a heavy charitable presence include Toyota, Kia, Subaru, Isuzu, Hyundai Audi and more.

In a society such as Australia, no one should be left behind, but somehow some people or organisations fall through the cracks. Its comforting to know that many car manufacturers are there to help.
