Yamaha Motor Corp., U.S.A., announced that the company is donating $15,000 to two of its charitable organization partners: Honored American Veterans Afield (HAVA) and Feed the Children (FTC).
Yamaha recently gathered motorsports dealers for an incentive and appreciation event near Austin, Tex., where the company unveiled the all-new 2015 Viking VI EPS six-person side-by-side (SxS) vehicle. The launch event included a number of activities that ultimately allowed Yamaha corporate staff and dealers to help raise awareness and money for HAVA and FTC. As a result, Yamaha committed to donating $15,000 to be split evenly between the two organizations.
Yamaha is a founding sponsor of HAVA (www.honoredveterans.org), an organization created to help disabled soldiers and veterans with the healing process through active participation in outdoor sports. Yamaha has worked with Feed the Children (www.feedthechildren.org) as its corporate charity for nearly 20 years.
