GM Korea Plant and Hyeopshinhoe, a gathering of GM's domestic suppliers, held the "10,000-Step Sharing Walk" event on September 12 at Incheon Daegongwon Park in Namdong-gu, Incheon. The event was conducted under the slogan "Walk Together, Share Together." Hector Vazquez, President of GM Korea Plant; Bang Seon-il, Executive Vice President of Purchasing; Park Chan-dae, Mayor of Incheon Metropolitan City; and Heo Woo-young, Chairman of Hyeopshinhoe, joined approximately 700 employees from both organizations.
Hyeopshinhoe was established in 1984 with 155 member companies and has since grown to include 260 members. As a group deeply rooted in the Incheon region, it has made significant contributions to the local economy and boasts a long history, earning such influence that Mayor Park Chan-dae of Incheon Metropolitan City participated in the event.
Participants completed an approximately 6-kilometer course at Incheon Daegongwon Park. The donation model applied was one won per step, meaning each participant contributed 10,000 won upon reaching 10,000 steps. The accumulated donations will be delivered to five welfare institutions and organizations in the Incheon area: Bupyeong Home Care Support Center, Hanul-tari Temporary Shelter, Shil-manhan Mulga-eui Jip, Eun-gwang-won, and the Love Rice Sharing Movement Headquarters. These funds are intended for purchasing essential goods, convenience items, and clothing for vulnerable groups, as well as for waterproofing construction at welfare facilities.
Hector Vazquez, President of GM Korea Plant, expressed hope that this event would lead to warm changes benefiting the local community and emphasized his commitment to continuously expanding social contribution activities that foster mutual prosperity with the region. Heo Woo-young, Chairman of Hyeopshinhoe, also described the gathering as a realization of shared value and pledged to consistently continue sharing activities based on communication and cooperation.
