Kyeryong Construction has provided funding to improve the living conditions of veterans who have dedicated their lives to the nation.
On September 16, Kyeryong Construction Chairman Lee Seung-chan presented a donation of 100 million won to Major General Lee Woo-hun, the Army Personnel Command, during a ceremony held at the Mugunghwa Hall in Gyeryong City, South Chungcheong Province.
The "Love for the Country Housing Project" aims to enhance the living conditions of veterans from the Korean War and the Vietnam War who are living in poor housing environments. The project is a collaborative effort involving the Army, welfare organizations, and private companies. Kyeryong Construction was the first private company to participate in this initiative in 2011 and has contributed 100 million won annually.
This year, the project will support the construction and renovation of homes for four domestic veteran families. Additionally, it will assist two Ethiopian veterans of the Korean War in improving their living conditions. The program will also provide monthly rent support to 114 low-income veteran families residing in rental housing.
Chairman Lee expressed his happiness in being able to assist the national heroes, stating, "I am glad to provide some help to the veterans who have dedicated themselves to the country. I hope that respect and recognition for national veterans will spread widely in our society, leading to increased social interest and support."
In addition to the Love for the Country Housing Project, Kyeryong Construction also participates in the "Hope Sharing Campaign," which donates funds to help those in need each year, provides scholarships to nurture local talent, and offers support for recovery efforts during disasters.
