Hope On Wheels



Gurnee Hyundai Proudly Supports Hyundai's Hope on Wheels.

Since 1998, Hyundai and its dealers have been committed to supporting the fight against childhood cancer. What began in 1998 as a local initiative supported by New England-area Hyundai dealers to raise funds for the Jimmy Fund at Boston's Dana-Farber Cancer Institute has evolved into Hyundai Hope on Wheels, an independent 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization that is now supported nationwide by Hyundai's 800+ dealers and Hyundai Motor America. Since its inception, Hyundai Hope on Wheels has donated more than $23 million to children's hospitals across the country to help kids fight cancer. Every time a new Hyundai vehicle is sold in the U.S., a donation is made to Hope on Wheels.

The Hope on Wheels Tour is the united effort of Hyundai dealers across the country to raise awareness about childhood cancer and celebrate the lives of the courageous children battling the disease. In 2010, the Hope on Wheels Tour traveled to 44 children's hospitals across the country and donated more than $2 million to support further training and research for doctors involved in childhood cancer research. Hyundai Hope on Wheels designates the medical professionals supported by these donations as Hyundai Scholars.

On September 16, 2011 Hyundai Hope on Wheels and Gurnee Hyundai, along with other Chicagoland Hyundai dealers, participated in a Hope on Wheels event at Cromer Children's Hospital at the University of Chicago to present $100,000 to help continue providing the best care possible to children fighting this disease.   Gurnee Hyundai is committed to continued support for Cromers Children Hospital and helping find a cure.
