The Export-Import Bank of Korea (www.koreaexim.go.kr, Chairman Kim Yong-hwan, “Korea Eximbank”) announced on October 10 that its social contribution program ‘Seed of Hope’ donated KRW 50 million in emergency aid to ‘Love Sharing Global Village’, a welfare center for migrant workers ravaged by fire on October 8.

Chairman Kim of Korea Eximbank visited the soup kitchen of the Love Sharing Global Village to deliver the donation (which would cover medical and rebuilding expenses) to the center’s President Kim Hae-sung.

Chairman Kim remarked at the occasion, “It must be a terrible shock to see the product of a decade of work destroyed overnight. We hope that our bank’s donation will help, in however meager a way, to rebuild the precious home of migrant workers.”

The donation of the bank will be used to treat a dozen victims of the fire and to rebuild the soup kitchen at the center.
