Kawasaki donates Mules to hurricane relief
With the effects of Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma still being felt, Kawasaki has donated 10 new Kawasaki Mule utility vehicles toward relief efforts in affected regions.
“The destruction caused from Hurricane Harvey was devastating and the team at Kawasaki is anxious to lend our support to all those impacted,” said Yoshi Tamura, Kawasaki president and CEO. “We know our Kawasaki Mule vehicles will aid in assisting support teams, families, and our dealers in repairing their homes and businesses. Our thoughts and prayers are extended to everyone affected.”
“With Hurricane Irma coming right on the heels of all of the destruction from Hurricane Harvey, everyone at Kawasaki is prepared to support those most recently impacted,” said Tamura. “We have seen how the Kawasaki Mule vehicles are assisting support teams, families, and our dealers in repairing their homes and businesses in Texas and we will extend that assistance to those now affected in Florida and the rest of the Southeast U.S.”
Many Kawasaki dealers have immediately begun loaning Mule utility vehicles to local relief organizations and the Kawasaki regional office in Atlanta, Georgia is ready to assist its dealer network. In addition, Kawasaki will continue a corporate donation-matching program for employees at all of its U.S. locations. The company will match all individual donations from $30 to $500 made to non-profit organizations. So far, Kawasaki has donated a combined total of more than $150,000 to hurricane relief efforts.
