2019 Hyundai Hope On Wheels
Minutes are
Precious
This book is a tribute to our commitment to
help kids fight cancer.
Hyundai Hope On Wheels is a 501(c)3 non-
profit organization supported by Hyundai
02 and its U.S. dealers. With the sale of every
new Hyundai vehicle, Hyundai and its dealers
make a donation to support pediatric cancer
research. Since 1998, we have donated over
$172 million in our pursuit to find cures and
improve care for children fighting cancer.
Thank you to the brave children battling
cancer and all of the doctors, researchers,
Hyundai dealers, Hyundai owners,
and supporters for your efforts in
this fight.
