Genesis BBQ Group recently announced on the 17th that it has joined the emergency relief efforts for the T?rkiye-Syria earthquake by donating 50 million KRW to the Community Chest of Korea.

The donation ceremony was held on the 16th at the Community Chest of Korea headquarters in Jung-gu, Seoul, attended by Yoon Hong-geun, Chairman of Genesis BBQ Group, Kim Byung-jun, Chairman of the Community Chest of Korea, and key executives from each company.

T?rkiye and Syria suffered great damage from a magnitude 7.8 earthquake that occurred on the 6th (local time), with the death toll nearing 40,000. The donation from BBQ will be used to support relief activities for disaster victims, including providing food kits, tents, blankets, and other protective supplies needed at temporary shelters.

Chairman Yoon said, “I extend my deepest condolences to the people of T?rkiye and Syria who have lost their homes and are enduring painful times due to this unprecedented earthquake damage,” adding, “I hope for a swift recovery so that they can return to their daily lives as soon as possible.”

Meanwhile, the 'Community Chest Earthquake Relief Special Fundraising' campaign, in which BBQ is participating, aims to raise 10 billion KRW by the 28th and will be distributed sequentially through international relief and development organizations thereafter.
