How Hope Works
Through no fault of their own, cancer strikes at a time when kids just want to be kids. They have dreams, goals and so much to contribute.
Hyundai and its U.S. dealers created Hyundai Hope On Wheels in 1998. From the sale of every new vehicle, a donation is made to fight cancer. To date, more than $185 million and over 800 research grants has gone to support research at Children’s Hospitals across the nation.
Meet Our Ambassadors
Meet Alex and Jordyn, our 2020-2021 National Youth Ambassadors. Every two years, Hope On Wheels selects two brave pediatric cancer survivors to represent the program as National Youth Ambassadors. Alex and Jordyn will join Hope On Wheels in our mission to fight childhood cancer and will travel around the US visiting children’s hospitals and attending events to tell their stories of courage and hope.
