HD Hyundai Oilbank Provides 130 Million Won in Scholarships to 65 Children of Truck Drivers

[Financial News] HD Hyundai Oilbank will provide a total of 130 million won in scholarships to 65 children of truck drivers. Each student will receive 2 million won, increasing both the total amount of support and the per-student payment from last year.
HD Hyundai Oilbank said on the 13th that it held the 2026 Hope Wheel Scholarship Certificate Presentation Ceremony on the 12th at the Cargo Welfare Foundation in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Attendees included Park Hae-gyu, secretary-general of the Cargo Welfare Foundation, and Hwang In-jin, a managing director at HD Hyundai Oilbank.
HD Hyundai Oilbank recruited scholarship applicants through the Cargo Welfare Foundation last September and selected 65 children from truck-driver families. The scholarships will be paid through the HD Hyundai 1% Nanum Foundation.
The Hope Wheel scholarship program was launched in 2012 to ease the education cost burden on truck-driver families. Including this year's awards, about 1,700 students have received scholarships, totaling 1.5 billion won.
Separately, HD Hyundai Oilbank runs programs for high school students in Seosan, South Chungcheong Province, including a Seoul National University mentoring program and outreach admissions briefings.
