[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] Korea Industrial Complex Corporation (hereinafter referred to as KICOX, Chairman Kim Jeong-hwan) announced on the 13th that it jointly donated goods worth 24 million won to 13 social welfare facilities near industrial complexes nationwide with the KICOX Global Leading Companies Association (hereinafter referred to as the Association, President Min Dong-wook) to overcome the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

Earlier in June, the Association, composed of companies located in industrial complexes, and KICOX signed an agreement for joint social contribution activities, and agreed to jointly donate goods to overcome difficulties caused by COVID-19 as members of the local community. The goods were prepared using the Association's donations and KICOX's social contribution fund. The Association voluntarily raised funds to purchase Onnuri gift certificates, and KICOX also participated in the donation by purchasing daily necessities at traditional markets using the social contribution fund.

The delivery took place from the 9th to the 13th in 11 regions nationwide through cooperation between the Association's branches and KICOX regional headquarters. The delivered Onnuri gift certificates and daily necessities will be used for vulnerable groups in social welfare facilities, such as facilities for the disabled, which are struggling with operations due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic. Chairman Kim Jeong-hwan said, "I hope this will help vulnerable groups having a hard time due to COVID-19 to have a warm winter, even if just a little."
