Honda Canada Foundation

We were created to lend a hand to registered non-profit charities that strive to make the lives of Canadians better.

A Better Tomorrow

$2M+ donated annually.

Every year we give over $2 million to a variety of causes across Canada to help create a brighter tomorrow for us all.

Helping at Home

6.5M+ Canadians helped.

Since 2005, we’ve impacted one in every six Canadians through initiatives ranging from education to environmentalism.

Giving is Timeless

3,100+ volunteer hours.

Honda Associates donate thousands of hours to valuable causes every year. We’re proud to help make Canada a better place.

Enabling the Realization of Dreams

We support people and organizations that focus on our four pillars: Family, Environment, Engineering and Education. This allows us to make a positive contribution to Canadians everywhere.

Make-A-Wish^® Canada is an affiliate of Make-A-Wish^® International, the largest wish-granting organization in the world, making dreams and wishes come true for more than 450,000 children since 1980.

We help charities that support children and their families in times of need, and we help fund programs that create learning opportunities for families as a whole.
