This social contribution project is being carried out jointly by the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs, KMI, and Jaseng Medical Foundation. Summer bedding and daily necessities worth approximately 60 million KRW, sponsored by KMI and Jaseng Medical Foundation, will be delivered to 500 national veterans living alone.

Kim Soon-yi, Honorary Chairman of KMI (Chairman of the Social Contribution Committee), said, "It is meaningful to participate in social contributions supporting the healthy summer of national veterans," adding, "To honor the noble achievements of those who have dedicated themselves to the country, KMI will continue to carry out social contribution activities sharing health love, including free health checkups."

To help maintain the health and stabilize the lives of national veterans, KMI signed a 'Comprehensive Health Checkup Medical Service Support Agreement for National Veterans' with the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs last year, providing free health checkups to national veterans and their immediate families.

KMI Korea Medical Institute, established in 1985 as a health screening institution, currently operates health screening centers in eight locations nationwide: three in Seoul (Gwanghwamun, Yeouido, Gangnam) and five in other regions (Suwon, Daegu, Busan, Gwangju, Jeju). In addition to activities for early disease detection, prevention, and promotion of public health, it carries out various social contribution projects.
