Gyeonggi Housing and Urban Corporation (GH) supported the Gyeonggi Branch of the Korean Red Cross with a donation of 50 million won to enable the prompt supply of relief supplies in the event of a disaster. In addition, GH employees volunteered to help pack relief items.


On July 22, GH announced that it had provided financial support to the Gyeonggi Branch of the Korean Red Cross to be used for the production of approximately 1,600 customized disaster relief kits, which include emergency relief supplies and emergency food. These relief kits will be immediately distributed to disaster victims in the event of a future disaster, thereby contributing to the swift recovery of the local community.

This relief kit support was carried out as part of 'emergency support', one of the key areas of GH’s social contribution initiatives. GH systematically promotes its social contribution efforts by dividing them into four categories: emergency support, residential environment, social welfare, and others. Last year as well, GH provided 50 million won in production costs to the Red Cross for the creation of relief supplies.


On this day, approximately 30 GH employees also participated in volunteer work by directly packing the relief kits.



Yongjin Kim, CEO of GH, stated, "With the recent increase in various disasters caused by climate change, such as heavy rains and heatwaves, the need for proactive emergency relief activities is growing even greater." He emphasized, "We will continue to expand a culture of sharing in which employees directly participate, thereby continuously enhancing our company-wide social value."
