Progress for Humanity: Future Generations

Hyundai believes in a bright future driven by the Youth of today.

We all have youth in our lives, whether it be through family, friends, work, or our community. Our concentration is to ensure that we can support the under-served youth of Canada.

By focusing our CSR support to organizations providing Youth programs, we can be a partner in leading the development of social, educational and emotional experiences. This, in turn, will lead to fuller lives, career success and upward social and economic mobility. We will provide Youth with the opportunity to discover and achieve their dreams.

Our partners in progress.

Youth of the Year is BGC Canada’s annual national competition. This award celebrates youth achievements, service, and leadership in BGC Clubs, schools, and communities. Each year, Club members from across Canada apply to become “Youth of the Year.” From the submissions, six Club members are selected as “Regional Youth of the Year,” followed by one youth demonstrating exceptional leadership, service, and achievement to receive additional recognition as BGC Canada’s “National Youth of the Year.” The National YoY winner receives a $10,000 CAD scholarship to apply to post-secondary education. We are proud to be supporting the Youth of the Year award since 2020 with a $1M donation as the title sponsor. Read more about our partnership.

Hyundai Canada has sponsored the Markham Stouffville Hospital Foundation with a donation of $500,000 as they expand their youth and adolescent in-patient mental health services with a brand-new unit. With this new space and program, youth in need of mental health support will obtain life changing services. Read more about our partnership. 

For several years, Hyundai Canada has supported Indspire’s Building Brighter Futures scholarship programs, supporting Indigenous youth in their post-secondary education. We are pleased to also support Indspire with Research Funding.

Hyundai Canada sponsors students at the Automotive Business School of Canada. The Automotive Business School of Canada receives a Diversity Scholarship, a Women in Automotive Scholarship, and several Entrance Awards for eligible Indigenous and Black students.

To support local and national charitable organizations, we have been able to loan SANTA FE's to our friends at 360Kids and four BGC Clubs across Canada. With the use of these vehicles, these organizations are able to better serve their youth and their communities.
