The Miryang Citizen Scholarship Foundation said it received a 10 million won scholarship donation on November 9 from Kim Ho-sang, CEO of Miryang Industrial Company.

Kim, who is from Jukwol-ri, Muan-myeon, Miryang, founded Miryang Industrial Company in Busan in 1975 and now operates the business in Gimhae. The company manufactures and sells key components for machine tools and the defense industry. It has grown on the strength of its technology and business know-how accumulated over more than 50 years.

Kim has continued donating to the scholarship fund for more than 10 years since his first contribution in 2015. With this latest donation, his total contributions have surpassed 100 million won.

Kim has also consistently supported local communities and carried out charitable activities, donating scholarships and other contributions every year in his hometown of Miryang, as well as in Gimhae and Busan.

“I donate to the scholarship fund because I want to give back to local talent for the love I have received from the community,” Kim said. “I hope to help provide students with a foundation that allows them to focus on their studies and pursue their dreams to the fullest.”

Ahn Byung-gu, chairman of the Miryang Citizen Scholarship Foundation, said, “I am deeply grateful for your support in nurturing local talent through your unwavering love for your hometown over many years. We will put the donated scholarship funds to meaningful use so students can develop their dreams and hopes.”

The donation is expected to help spread a culture of giving and corporate social responsibility in the community, expand educational opportunities for local students, and support the steady implementation of scholarship programs to nurture future talent.
