On March 19, S-Oil announced that it had delivered a donation of 150 million won to the Hallim Burn Foundation, a social welfare corporation, at Hallym University Hangang Sacred Heart Hospital in Yeongdeungpo, Seoul, to support burn patients from low-income families.

Of this donation, 100 million won will be allocated to cover medical expenses for 10 burn patients from low-income households, providing 10 million won per person. The remaining 50 million won will be used for programs designed to help burn patients achieve self-reliance. These funds will support activities such as burn patients participating directly in pressure garment making, as well as campaigns to improve burn safety and awareness.

Since 2021, S-Oil has been cooperating with the Hallim Burn Foundation to provide medical expense support for burn patients. The donation is being used to reduce cases where patients discontinue treatment due to financial burdens, and to help ensure they can continue their treatment in a stable environment.

An S-Oil representative stated, "We hope that burn patients can receive treatment without worry and return to their healthy daily lives," adding, "We will continue our social contribution efforts for neighbors in need and practice ESG management going forward."
