Mazda Helps Out in Your Community
Building a Better Tomorrow Through the Mazda Foundation
Mazda is proud to be a company that gives back to the communities the automaker and its dealerships work in. See how Mazda helps out in your community and what you can do to help support these efforts.
What Is the Mazda Foundation?
The Mazda Foundation is a philanthropic organization that aims to give back to the communities we do business in. To fulfill this mission, the Mazda Foundation was established as a way to help the many critical non-profit organizations that already exist in the communities we serve.
The Foundation was established in 1992 and has since helped provide over $14.8 million dollars in grant funding to the non-profits that exist in the communities we work in. While we support a wide variety of nonprofit organizations, much of our funding goes towards supporting students and those in need of food security and workforce development.
One of the most celebrated aspects of the Mazda Foundation is that because the communities we serve are continuously changing, the efforts adapt to best meet the needs of the community. Funding, which is issued in the form of grants, is one of the many ways our company is seeking to build a better tomorrow.
See How the Mazda Foundation Serves Your Community
The grants issued by the Mazda Foundation have a wide-reaching impact on many different nonprofit groups. Because every community has its own unique needs, we are proud to offer a foundation that can help serve those unique needs. In this way, the Mazda Foundation has had a long-lasting and meaningful impact on the communities that we work with.
Mazda Foundation grants are awarded to a range of nonprofit organizations, including those in the areas of education, literacy, cross-cultural understanding, environmental efforts, social welfare, and scientific research.

Mazda aims to help make the communities we work in a better place for individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and needs. What better way than to support those nonprofit organizations that are already making such a big impact? Individuals across the nation turn to these critical nonprofit organizations within their communities in order to improve their day-to-day lives. Mazda and its partner dealerships are committed to helping in that effort by providing grants to those organizations that need them the most.
