Hyundai Motor will donate US$15 million by the end of the year to help children with cancer in the U.S. through its charity Hope On Wheels.

The automaker announced the plan in a ceremony in Washington on Tuesday celebrating the 20th anniversary of the charity, which is committed to funding research centers working on treatments and cures for childhood cancer in the U.S.

The donation will bring the cumulative total of donations to the charity to $130 million. Every time a Hyundai car is sold, dealers donate $14 to the funds and Hyundai matches the amount.
