[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jonghwa] Ahn Yusu, Chairman of the Ace Gyeongam Foundation (photo), donated rice worth 140 million won to Seongnam City, Gyeonggi Province, in celebration of Chuseok. The rice (10kg) donated by Chairman Ahn will be delivered in 5,900 bags to elderly living alone and households headed by children in Seongnam City.

Since 1999, Chairman Ahn has been donating rice to marginalized neighbors every Lunar New Year and Chuseok holiday. This year marks the 24th year, and the total amount of rice (10kg) donated so far is 130,660 bags (1,306 tons), amounting to approximately 3.02 billion won.

Chairman Ahn said, "Based on the management philosophy of 'returning corporate profits to society,' we have continued steady donations rather than temporary support," adding, "I hope that vulnerable groups who are struggling due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and heavy rain damage recently will have a prosperous Chuseok with hearty rice meals."
