At Honda, we believe in the power of helping others. Making a difference matters to us. That’s why, in 1992, we created The Honda Foundation to help fund and empower organisations that are focused on helping others.
The Honda Foundation is funded by contributions from Honda Australia, private donors and 90 Centres across the country. For every new Honda vehicle sold in Australia, the Honda Centre donates $10, Honda Australia donates $20 taking the total donation to $30. More than $14 million has so far been donated to hundreds of very worthy causes, including empowering disadvantaged Australians, providing relief for victims of natural disasters and supporting the development of new technologies and research to fight disease.
