Description

National organizations working in the areas of youth and scientific education may be eligible for grants from the American Honda Foundation. The foundation's policy is to seek out those programs and organizations with a well-defined sense of purpose, demonstrated commitment to making the best use of available resources, and a reputation for accomplishing their objectives. While the American Honda Foundation recognizes that there is a broad range of organizations worthy of support, budget limitations necessitate a focus on those with the broadest national interest and support and, therefore, the highest potential for success.
