[Asia Economy Reporter Tae-min Ryu] The Korea Housing Construction Association announced on the 7th that it held the '2022 Social Welfare Facility Donation Ceremony' at 13 locations nationwide, including the Seoul Seongrowon Childcare Facility in Dongjak-gu, Seoul.

The association, with participation from the central office and 13 city and provincial chapters, donated 99 million KRW in funds and sponsorship goods worth 2.5 million KRW to social welfare facilities such as childcare centers and senior welfare centers.

Chairman Jae-hong Park said, "It is regrettable that due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we could not carry out love-sharing volunteer activities with our executives and staff ahead of Chuseok this year," adding, "We will further expand support and volunteer activities for socially vulnerable groups to fulfill our social responsibilities as a public organization."

Every year before the Chuseok holiday, the central office and city and provincial chapter staff engage in love-sharing volunteer activities. This year, due to concerns about COVID-19 infection, only a simplified donation ceremony for sponsorship goods and funds was held without volunteer activities.
