The Korea Housing Association (KHA) has donated 30 million won to support recovery efforts in the flood-affected regions of Geoje and Tongyeong in South Gyeongsang Province.
On August 24, KHA officials presented the relief fund at Geoje City Hall, as announced on August 25. The donation was made possible through contributions from the KHA central office and 13 regional chapters across the country. The ceremony was attended by Park Jae-bok, president of the KHA Busan chapter, and Kim Chan-soo, president of the Ulsan and Gyeongnam chapter.
KHA President Kim Sung-eun expressed his condolences to those who lost their homes due to the flooding, stating, “As a member of the housing construction community, I extend my deepest sympathies to the victims. I hope this donation will help the residents of Geoje and Tongyeong recover quickly and secure safe housing.”
He also thanked the regional chapters for their support in fundraising despite challenging industry conditions, adding, “We will continue to share the burden of communities affected by disasters and fulfill our social responsibility as a representative organization in housing construction.”
In addition to this relief effort, KHA is committed to various social contribution activities, including improving housing conditions for veterans, providing fire extinguishers to vulnerable groups, and supporting descendants of independence activists.
On June 24, KHA and the Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation (HUG) acknowledged the housing industry's contributions to improving living conditions for veterans with national awards and presidential citations.
