During the sports event, employees of HS Hyosung Advanced Materials were matched one-on-one with children with disabilities, who typically have difficulty participating in outdoor activities, to enjoy a variety of sports programs and recreational activities together.


The sponsorship funds delivered on the day will be used to replace wheelchair inner seats to improve mobility for children with disabilities, to purchase specialized rehabilitation equipment, and to improve the facility's environment.


The partnership between HS Hyosung Advanced Materials and Yeongnak Ania House, which began in 2012, marks its 15th anniversary this year. HS Hyosung Advanced Materials has consistently supported the real improvement of the quality of life and independence of people with severe disabilities through regular in-person volunteer activities such as acting as walking companions and supporting sports events.


This initiative is part of the implementation of the social contribution slogan "Value and Together," which has been emphasized by Vice Chairman Cho Hyun-sang of HS Hyosung. Vice Chairman Cho has consistently stated, "It is a company's responsibility to provide practical help so that our marginalized neighbors can live healthy lives as members of society."



In recognition of these ongoing efforts to create social value, HS Hyosung Advanced Materials was selected last year as a recognized company for the seventh consecutive year in the 'Community Contribution Certification System,' organized by the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Korea National Council on Social Welfare. The company also received a commendation from the Minister of Health and Welfare and was awarded the highest S grade.
