For the third consecutive year, Hurom and ChildFund Korea have been carrying out social contribution projects focused on health, children, and vegetables and fruits. Last year, they operated an experiential social contribution program by creating vegetable gardens in unused rooftop spaces in low-rise residential neighborhoods in Seoul.

This year, in collaboration with the Rainbow Art School at Seoul Children's Hospital, they established a "Vegetable Playground" and ran an annual educational program. Once a week, alternative curriculum classes were held, offering natural garden experiences, nutrition education, healthy juice extraction, and cooking classes, providing nature-friendly education through vegetables and fruits.

In addition, last year, Hurom and ChildFund Korea regularly donated seasonal vegetables and fruits every month to children from vulnerable groups nationwide. This year, they operated a program to improve vegetable and fruit eating habits for children at daycare centers in Gimhae, Gyeongnam, consistently carrying out a variety of activities to promote children's health.
