[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Hye-seon] OB Beer announced on the 14th that it donated 10 million KRW to the Gangnam Welfare Foundation on the 13th to support heating costs for energy-vulnerable groups. The donation ceremony held on the afternoon of the 13th at OB Beer's Seoul headquarters was attended by OB Beer CEO Bae Ha-jun, Vice President of Sales Division Choi Sang-beom, Gangnam Welfare Foundation Executive Director Kim Yong-ju, and Gangnam Welfare Foundation Deputy Director Song Jin-young.

The donation will be delivered through the Gangnam Welfare Foundation to 100 households of energy-vulnerable groups such as elderly living alone and low-income families residing in Gangnam-gu, where OB Beer's Seoul headquarters is located, and will be used for heating costs this winter.

Energy-vulnerable groups refer to households that spend more than 10% of their income on energy costs such as heating and electricity bills. This includes basic livelihood security recipients and near-poverty groups, who, due to low income, cannot afford energy costs and endure summer and winter without using the energy necessary for health and survival.

OB Beer is actively practicing eco-friendly management by setting and implementing a goal to replace 100% of the electricity it uses with renewable energy by 2025 as part of the 'RE100 (Renewable Energy 100%)' initiative.
