Doosan Group announced on the 16th that it will donate 500 million KRW to the Community Chest of Korea to help the victims in Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do, which was recently declared a special disaster area due to severe wildfires.


The donation will be used for emergency housing and essential supplies for the victims, as well as the restoration of homes and facilities damaged by the wildfires.


A Doosan representative said, “We hope this will help the residents of Gangneung, who have suffered unexpected damage, to regain stability as soon as possible.”


Last year, Doosan also provided 500 million KRW each for wildfire damages in Uljin and Samcheok, and for heavy rain damage in the central region, supporting recovery efforts in every disaster situation. In February this year, Doosan Bobcat dispatched equipment worth approximately 1 million USD, including excavators and portable generators, to the earthquake site in Turkey to assist with relief and recovery activities.
