The Korea Special Mission Veterans Association and Daebon Korea are embarking on a partnership based on shared social responsibility. The initiative aims to support the economic independence of veterans while expanding corporate social responsibility through a collaborative model.
The Korea Special Mission Veterans Association announced that it signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Daebon Korea on May 7 at Seorae Naru in Banpo Hangang Park.
The two organizations will focus on a "capital-free startup support program" to assist veterans' families in achieving self-sufficiency. This initiative aims to reduce the financial burden of starting a business and establish a stable foundation for operations. Additionally, they plan to collaborate on public interest projects, including eco-friendly energy and ESG management practices.
The partnership is rooted in a connection formed in the past. Baek Jong-won visited the veterans association's training center while obtaining his yacht license. During this visit, he shared homemade kimchi with an instructor who was battling cancer, a gesture that gained attention online as a heartwarming story.
Kim Yong-deok, the association's president, stated, "Baek Jong-won's sincere actions toward veterans' families have instilled deep trust among our members. We are now moving beyond a relationship of receiving help to becoming partners in driving corporate growth and realizing social value together."
