On April 25, 2015 a magnitude 7.8 earthquake devastated the small country of Nepal. Honda corporation has operations in Nepal consisting of motorcycle, automobile and power equipment distributors and dealers. Because of the connection and in response to this tragedy, Honda will donate approximately $168,000 as well as equipment to support the relief and recovery effort.
Whenever disasters occur, the Honda company closest to the spot assesses the situation and determines how best to respond. In this case, Honda Asia has taken the lead on these efforts.
Honda hopes this contribution will help support the restoration of the devastated infrastructure and assist with recovery for those affected.
While Honda also has operations in India and Bangladesh, no victims or property damage has been reported for Honda operations in the areas of these countries affected by this disaster.
If you would like to join Honda in donating to relief efforts in Nepal, please donate to the American Red Cross here.
