Kumho Engineering & Construction announced on the 20th that it received a '20th Anniversary Sponsor' plaque from the Korean Pearl Buck Foundation on the 17th. The foundation, established in 1965 by Nobel Prize in Literature winner Pearl S. Buck, has been supporting multicultural children and their families in need through specialized social welfare programs for over 60 years.
Since 2004, Kumho Engineering & Construction has been supporting low-income multicultural youth, delivering a message of sharing and hope to the community for 20 years.
This year, Kumho Engineering & Construction will support two middle school students through the Korean Pearl Buck Foundation and will provide educational expenses until they graduate from high school. So far, five multicultural youth have completed their studies with the support of Kumho Engineering & Construction.
Kumho Engineering & Construction's support activities for multicultural children aim to help them grow as members of society and to realize the beauty of a multicultural society. Donations are used to guarantee the right to education for low-income multicultural children and to alleviate the economic burden on their families.
Kumho Engineering & Construction President Cho Wan-seok said, "We will spare no effort to provide ongoing support so that multicultural youth can achieve their dreams and establish themselves securely in society," adding, "I hope our small contributions will bring great hope to the children, and we will do our best to extend warm hands to many more in the future."
