Hyundai Transys Supports Electric Wheelchairs for Disabled Youth in Hwaseong City

Hyundai Transys has stepped up to support electric wheelchairs for social welfare facilities to improve mobility rights for disabled youth.

On the 27th, Hyundai Transys announced on the 31st that it delivered customized electric wheelchairs to disabled youth in the district at the Dongtan Ardim Welfare Center in Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do.

The delivery ceremony was attended by Baek Cheol-seung, CEO of Hyundai Transys, Lee Kwang-jae, Executive Director of the social welfare corporation Warm Companion, Kim Hyo-jin, Secretary General of the Gyeonggi Social Welfare Community Chest, and about 20 Hyundai Transys executives and employees.

Hyundai Transys raised 30 million KRW in funds to support the purchase of electric wheelchairs through a 'one-to-one matching grant' method, where employees and the company donate the same amount together, to improve the mobility rights and support independent living of disabled youth in Hwaseong-si, where the headquarters is located.

This electric wheelchair support is expected to greatly help disabled youth, who had many restrictions on outdoor activities, to live independently at school and in daily life.

CEO Baek said, "I hope this will help disabled youth experience a wider world and move toward their dreams, even if just a little." He added, "As a company growing together with Hwaseong-si, Hyundai Transys will continue to support the welfare improvement of vulnerable groups, including disabled youth in the district."
