[Asia Economy Reporter Ryu Tae-min] The Korea Housing Builders Association announced on the 9th that it had donated 100 million KRW to the Korean Red Cross on the 8th to provide a 'safe space' within shelters for disaster victims during disasters.


The relief tents for disaster victims produced with the support of the Korea Housing Builders Association will be provided as temporary housing facilities for disaster victims at shelters during disasters. Under normal circumstances, they will be used for disaster relief training and disaster safety experience camps.


Park Jae-hong, president of the Housing Builders Association, said, "I hope this donation will help minimize the damage to disaster victims by supporting the installation of relief tents in the early stages of large-scale disasters or calamities." He added, "I am glad that we can continue our support this year following last year's donation to the Korean Red Cross for COVID-19 relief." He emphasized, "We will continue to do our best in our social role to build a social safety net necessary to overcome disaster crises."



The Korea Housing Builders Association leads various social contribution activities as part of returning corporate profits to society. Representative activities include the national merit housing improvement project, now in its 28th year, fire extinguisher support projects for fire-vulnerable groups, volunteer activities distributing coal briquettes of love, and sponsorship and volunteer work for social welfare facilities.
