Huawei Korea Donates 100 Million KRW in Relief Funds to Uljin and Samcheok for Wildfire Damage

Donations Made Even During Gangwon Wildfires and COVID-19 Spread

[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] Huawei Korea has joined in donations to support the recovery from wildfire damage and aid for disaster victims in areas such as Uljin, Gyeongbuk, and Samcheok, Gangwon, which have been declared special disaster zones.

Huawei Korea announced on the 10th that it donated 100 million KRW through the Hope Bridge National Disaster Relief Association.

This is to help recover from the damage caused by the large-scale wildfires that have continued for five days in Uljin, Gyeongbuk, and Samcheok and Gangneung, Gangwon Province, and to assist disaster victims in returning to their daily lives. The donation will be used for setting up temporary housing facilities for disaster victims, as well as for supplies and medical support.

Son Lu-won, CEO of Huawei Korea, said, “We sincerely hope that the disaster victims who have lost their homes and are facing difficulties due to the unexpected large-scale wildfires can return to their daily lives as soon as possible,” and added, “We also thank all the personnel who are doing their best to extinguish the wildfires.”

Meanwhile, Huawei Korea also donated 100 million KRW for recovery and disaster victims during the wildfires in the Gangwon region in 2019. In 2020, it donated 200 million KRW and 200,000 masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
