Woori Financial Group's Woori Financial Future Foundation announced that on November 12, it held a ceremony to deliver winter supplies to 2,400 energy-vulnerable households at risk during the winter cold wave.


This support is part of the "Energy-Vulnerable Household Support Project," which Woori Financial Group has continued for nine years since 2017 in collaboration with the Seoul Metropolitan Council on Social Welfare. Since last year, the project has been led by the Woori Financial Future Foundation, a public interest foundation established with contributions from all affiliates of Woori Financial Group, expanding the scale of support and continuing the initiative.


This winter, Woori Financial Future Foundation is providing winter bedding sets, electric mats, and other cold weather supplies to housing-vulnerable households in Seoul to help prevent health deterioration caused by the cold and to create a warmer residential environment.


At the cold wave relief supplies delivery ceremony held on November 12, Vice Chairman Junho Cho of the Seoul Metropolitan Council on Social Welfare and Team Leader Jinhyung Seok of Woori Financial Future Foundation attended, marking the official start of support for the upcoming cold wave.


A representative from Woori Financial Future Foundation stated, "We hope that households vulnerable to temperature changes will be able to spend a warmer and healthier winter," adding, "We will continue to practice meaningful social contribution alongside the community by providing practical support under the value of 'walking with the underprivileged.'"


Meanwhile, Woori Financial Future Foundation is building "Goodwill Store" locations to create a job ecosystem for people with developmental disabilities and is operating "Goodwill Donation Boxes" at Woori Bank branches to promote a culture of giving.



Additionally, the foundation is carrying out various social contribution activities to support vulnerable groups in the welfare blind spots, such as "Woori Rookie," which supports visual and hearing surgeries for low-income children and adolescents, and "Woori Wonder Family," which helps teenage single parents achieve independence, thereby practicing the values of inclusive finance and warm sharing.
