Kumho Tire Supports Career Development and Education for Children of Traffic Accident Victims Again This Year

Career Mentoring for Children of Severe Traffic Accident Victims Since Last Year

[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] Kumho Tire announced on the 17th that it will carry out the ‘Kumho Tire-Korea Transportation Safety Authority Support Project for Children of Traffic Accident Victims,’ a program that supports career aptitude tests, career consulting, and other services for children of traffic accident victims.

Last year, Kumho Tire, together with the Korea Transportation Safety Authority and the Educational Broadcasting System (EBS), introduced the ‘Career Mentoring for Children of Severe Traffic Accident Victims’ for the first time in Korea. The program aims to provide direction for growth to children from families who have lost a parent or suffered severe aftereffects due to car accidents, experiencing economic losses and emotional trauma following the accident.

Kumho Tire offers various content to 50 elementary and middle school students selected by the Korea Transportation Safety Authority. These students undergo career aptitude tests to measure competencies in areas such as goals and achievement, and receive career consulting provided by professional counselors. Additionally, they are provided with subject-specific EBS textbooks, online mentoring, and educational content.

Jinkoo Kang, Head of Management Support Team at Kumho Tire, said, “We hope young people find their strengths through career mentoring and use this as a stepping stone to take off and find their own path.” He added, “Based on the current direction, Kumho Tire plans to continuously diversify its educational donation programs and develop social contribution activities to realize social value.”
