Sixteen high-performing students from all over the country were recently honored by Honda North America Inc. for academic excellence. Honda, along with the Hispanic Scholarship Fund (HSF), gave each one of the students the opportunity to receive scholarships valued at $5,000 to help pay for college living expenses, tuition, and books.
This year, Honda did a little something different by allowing the students to interview on-site at the event for Honda’s Summer Immersion Internship program. Students that are accepted to this program receive unique educational experiences in an automobile manufacturing environment. Students that are selected for the scholarship must meet specific requirements, such as a 3.0-grade point average or above.
Next Generation Leaders
Honda recognizes the future generation as a generation of leaders. Not only will future generations help ensure the longevity of the Honda brand, but the purpose of the scholarships and other opportunities offered by Honda is to ensure that young people understand that the sky is the limit when reaching for their goals.
Following a breakfast at the event, the students traveled to a manufacturing, research, and development operation. They also got the opportunity to tour the Honda Heritage Museum, which shows an in-depth history of the Honda brand.
Honda Providing Resources
Honda believes in providing resources to students and their families so that students can continue to strive for higher education. Along with the Hispanic Scholarship Fund, Honda is facilitating just that. It is a partnership that both entities plan to continue well into the future, as both recognize the importance of contributing to higher education and the Hispanic community.
