Honda Doubles Donation for Wildfire Relief

By Staff Writer January 20, 2025

In response to the ongoing California wildfires, the Honda family of companies in the U.S. is doubling its previously announced $500,000 donation for crucial disaster relief funds to the American Red Cross – bringing the total to $1 million to support the tens of thousands of people impacted by the fires.

The donation will enable the American Red Cross to respond to and help people recover from this disaster across the affected region, home to the company’s U.S. sales and marketing headquarters and its associates.

“Honda recognizes the increased need for support and is dedicated to helping the communities impacted by the wildfires in the city Honda first called home in America 65 years ago,” said Jennifer Thomas, senior vice president of Corporate Affairs at American Honda Motor Co., Inc. “Our $1 million donation directly addresses the urgent needs of the affected communities, and we are steadfast in our efforts to support their recovery and rebuilding.”

Beyond the corporate disaster recovery donations, Honda Financial Services (HFS) and Acura Financial Services (AFS) continue to offer payment extensions and lease deferrals to customers impacted by the natural disaster.

Honda is also offering its associates an opportunity to join the relief effort through the company’s matching fund program. Honda will match eligible donations on a dollar-for-dollar basis, up to a maximum of $1,000 per associate contribution.
