The Mazda FoundationPosted on October 26, 2010 by adminMazda Foundation strongly believes that a company has a responsibility to give something back to the communities in which it does business. To act on this belief, we created the Foundation, which is dedicated to building a better tomorrow through support of meaningful programs that make a difference. We are proud that in addition to our financial support, Mazda employees participate in many volunteer activities. Together, we not only imagine a better, brighter future, but we reach out to help turn it into reality. Zoom-Zoom!
Through Mazda USA, and its employees are working together to proactively help our neighbors – and the communities where we live and work – to build a better, brighter future. With contributions exceeding $5 million since its founding in 1992, the Foundation is playing a meaningful role in helping thousands of Americans realize their aspirations and dreams the Zoom-Zoom way. It’s also important to note that programs the Foundation supports range from children’s organizations and educational scholarships to food banks, environmental programs and crucial disaster relief efforts. In 2005, and in the wake of Hurricane Katrina – one of the most devasting natural disasters in U.S. history – Mazda took immediate steps to help those areas hardest hit through a timely grant to the American Red Cross. Katrina’s widespread destruction also had a direct impact on the Foundation’s ongoing partnership with Dillard University, whose campus is in the heart of New Orleans, Louisiana. Moreover, in 2007 the Mazda Foundation granted funding to the STAIR program which helps second-grade students in the New Orleans Community who are at risk of academic failure by helping with reading and language skills.
