This event was organized to help vulnerable neighbors, especially those at risk during the summer heat waves, to stay healthy throughout the season. Korea Zinc delivered Samgyetang and side dishes to 500 underprivileged households in the local community.

Korea Zinc Onsan Refinery has continued the Samgyetang sharing activity every year since 2017. Until last year, a cumulative total of 3,400 households had received support, with this year’s total reaching 3,900 households.

About 10 people, including employees of Korea Zinc and volunteer members from the Ulju-gun Council of the Korean Red Cross Volunteer Corps, participated in the preparation, cooking, and packaging of the meals. The completed Samgyetang and side dishes were delivered to each household through the Korean Red Cross.

A Korea Zinc official said, "We prepared this sharing event hoping to provide even a small help so that our neighbors, exhausted by the heat, can spend a healthy summer," adding, "As a company that aims to grow together with the local community, we will continue to engage in meaningful social contribution activities that offer real support to those in need."

Korea Zinc Onsan Refinery also continues various other social contribution activities, such as supporting the production of blood donation buses, providing emergency assistance and essential goods to families in crisis, and making dementia prevention kits. In addition, as the first company in Ulsan to join the Korean Red Cross's high-donor group, the Red Cross Honors Club (RCHC) 1 billion KRW Club, it is also actively working to promote a culture of sharing in the local community.
