Providing Educational Support for Non-Disabled Family Members

Hyosung has donated 130 million won to support rehabilitation treatment and family assistance for children with disabilities.

On May 19, at a donation ceremony held at the Purme Foundation in Jongno-gu, Seoul, Hyosung delivered funds for the "Medical Rehabilitation and Family Support Project for Children with Disabilities." The company stated that the initiative aims to continue providing customized welfare support for children with disabilities from low-income families and their families. The donation will be used not only for rehabilitation treatment costs for children with disabilities, but also for educational and psychological treatment expenses for their non-disabled siblings, who are often relatively overlooked, as well as for family trips.
