Apr 29, 2015 -- Honda would like to express deep sympathy and condolences to the victims of the recent earthquake which struck Nepal on April 25, 2015.

In response to this tragedy, Honda will donate approximately 20 million Japanese yen (US$168,000) as well as equipment to support the relief and recovery effort.
