Kumho Tire Delivers 'Warmth of Love' for Chuseok for 25th Consecutive Year

【Financial News Gwangju, South Jeolla—Reporter Hwang Tae-jong】Kumho Tire has been sharing the 'warmth of love' with neighbors in need near its plants ahead of the Chuseok holiday for 25 consecutive years since 2002, demonstrating its commitment to the local community.
Kumho Tire said on the 16th that it held its 'Neighborly Love Campaign' that day at the Gwangsan Community Service Center in Gwangsan District and the Ip-myeon Office in Gokseong County. The company delivered ritual supplies and food products worth 10 million won to about 200 elderly people living alone near its Gwangju and Gokseong plants.
Yoon Hyun-seok, head of Kumho Tire's management team, said, "We put our hearts into this effort in the hope that it would provide even a little support to neighbors in need and help everyone enjoy a happy and warm holiday."
Kumho Tire launched its 'holiday ritual-supplies delivery event' during Chuseok in 2002 to repay the continued support of local residents. Since then, it has delivered ritual supplies every year ahead of Seollal and Chuseok to help elderly people living alone enjoy warmer holidays. To date, the company has provided supplies to more than 11,800 neighbors.
Yoon Sun-min, head of the Gokseong Plant, emphasized, "We will continue working alongside the community without ever losing our gratitude for the local residents who care for and support Kumho Tire."
Meanwhile, Kumho Tire continues its community outreach through the 'Neighborly Love Kimchi-Sharing Event' at the end of each year. It is also actively pursuing other social contribution initiatives, including free tire inspections, and is fulfilling its role as a local company rooted in the community.
