Aug 08, 2025

The Woori Children's Medical Foundation (Chairman Chung Sung-kwan) announced on the 6th that it has conducted a fundraising campaign with executives and employees to help neighbors in flood-stricken areas such as Chungnam, Jeonnam, and Gyeongnam, which have been hit hard by recent torrential rains, and donated the entire fund to the Hope Bridge National Disaster Relief Association.

The Hope Bridge National Disaster Relief Association was established in 1965 and is the only legal disaster relief organization in Korea to support and recover victims in the event of various disasters and disasters with official approval from the government. When large-scale disasters such as typhoons, heavy rains, heavy snow, and earthquakes occur, relief personnel and supplies are immediately dispatched to the site, and comprehensive relief services have been provided from emergency daily necessities to temporary housing and disaster psychology counseling. The donation delivered this time will be used in full for emergency relief, recovery, and support for victims in flood-stricken areas.

This fundraising was held for five days from July 30 to August 3 with the voluntary participation of executives and employees of the Children's Medical Foundation. Employees heard the news of the victims who lost their homes and livelihoods due to sudden torrential rain, and gathered hope that the residents of the affected area would recover as soon as possible. The foundation also joined the will of executives and employees to add donations and implement social responsibility as a medical institution.




The fundraising ceremony was held by omitting separate events and delivering the entire donation directly to Hope Bridge.

A hospital official said, `We completed the donation process as soon as possible based on the judgment that prompt support is needed above all else.'

Chairman Chung Sung-kwan said, `I hope that those who lost their homes due to sudden heavy rains will return to their daily lives as soon as possible.'"I hope that it will be a small sincerity but help the recovery and reconstruction of neighbors." In the future, the Children's Medical Foundation will continue to actively participate in sharing and social contribution activities for the local community."




Meanwhile, the Children's Medical Foundation has been steadily carrying out various sharing activities for neighbors in need, such as the vulnerable in the region, the elderly living alone, and low-income children and adolescents since 2017. This fundraising to help the flood-stricken neighbor was also a meaningful practice to share the pain of the disaster site and help restore the damage. Our Children's Medical Foundation plans to take the lead in creating a warm and safe community in solidarity with all parts of society beyond the role of medical institutions in the future.
