ORANGE (CNS) – Rady Children’s Health Orange County received $500,000 in grants from carmaker Hyundai, officials announced Monday.
Hyundai Motor America and its nonprofit, Hyundai Hope on Wheels, made three separate grants amounting to $500,000 for the children’s hospital, formerly known as CHOC.
“Rady Children’s work transforms some of life’s most challenging moments into strength and healing for children and families,” said Randy Parker, Hyundai Motor North America’s CEO and president. “Through Hyundai and Hyundai Hope on Wheels, we are committed to advancing Rady Children’s mission and bringing Hyundai’s Progress for Humanity vision to life, expanding access to care and helping more children receive the treatment and support they need.”
Part of the grants will go toward pediatric cancer research, officials said.
“Every day, we are working toward the ambitious goal of treating cancer with a 100% success rate–and we believe it’s possible when partners like Hyundai and our community come together to show what philanthropy can achieve,” said Kim Milstien, executive vice president and regional president, Rady Children’s Health Orange County. “On behalf of our medical staff, the families we serve, and our entire community, I extend our deepest thanks to Hyundai. Their support is advancing critical areas of the cancer journey — research and survivorship — bringing hope and healing to children and families every day.”
