Deadline: 1-Nov-21
The Nissan Foundation is currently accepting applications for its grant program to “Enriching people’s lives”.
Nissan supports its vision by offering customers unparalleled products and services and by improving the quality of life in the communities where it operates.
The mission of the Nissan Foundation – to build community by valuing culture diversity – is as relevant today as it was in 1992, when it was founded.
Formed in response to the civil unrest that occurred near Nissan North America’s then US sales operations in Southern California following the Rodney King trial verdict, the Nissan Foundation has annually awarded hundreds of thousands of dollars to nonprofit organizations that support the Foundation’s mission.
Over its 29-year history, the Nissan Foundation has awarded more than $ 13 million to approximately 150 organizations promoting respect and understanding among cultural and ethnic groups.
