Hyundai Celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month Through Community Engagement And Philanthropic Initiatives

Hyundai marked Hispanic Heritage Month by celebrating the contributions of Hispanic and Latino communities in the U.S. through various initiatives. From September 15 to October 15, Hyundai engaged in philanthropic activities and partnerships to honour these communities' cultural and economic impact, particularly in the automotive sector.

The Amigos Unidos Employee Resource Group (ERG) at Hyundai continued its dedication to supporting educational programs for Hispanic youth. This year, they hosted the Seventh Annual Hyundai Career Experience Program. The event allowed college students to explore automotive careers at Hyundai's headquarters, with ERG members leading workshops in areas like product planning and sales.
