Honda’s Week of Service

This June, Honda celebrated its first annual Honda Week of Service by helping families and communities across the country. Over 16,000 volunteers participated in a number of outreach programs and community service all over North America. From June 10th to the 19th, volunteers in Canada, Mexico, and 41 states participated in 425 activities, and the results were astounding.

Because of the amazing volunteers, 3,000 families were fed, 60,000 canned goods and meals were provided, 2,500 children were given school supplies, 200 animals were adopted, 75 homes were painted, 350 bags of trash were collected, 600 pints of blood were drawn, and donations reached $75,000 dollars!

“We are so thankful to our associates and business partners who took time out to help improve the lives of people in the communities where we live and work,” said Executive Vice President Rick Schostek, Honda North America, Inc. “This week was an example of what can happen when a team of people come together to help their neighbors.”

Take a look at the video below. We hope it will inspire you to get involved and give back in your community!
