Hyundai Motor Company will contribute to the establishing of the global traffic safety culture with its pride as a global automobile company.
Despite the disadvantageous conditions of global economic recession and
growth slowdown, Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) had outstanding perfor-
mances at home and abroad last year with its strong brand competitiveness
and premium quality. In particular, it has recently consolidated its status as
a global automobile company by winning the first place in a general brand
section of the Initial Quality Study by J.D. Power, a firm that conducts surveys
of customer satisfaction on cars. These are the results of efforts that all em-
ployees and executive of HMC have put in through pre-emptive response to the
changes in the global market, in order to secure sustainable quality competitive-
ness. It is also an outcome thanks to the continuous interests and support by all
stakeholders as well as customers. To repay every stakeholder’s care and fulfill
its role as a global corporate citizen, HMC is practicing and gradually expanding
various social contribution activities at workplaces at home and abroad.
‘4 Moves,’ which include ‘Easy Move (mobility access for the transportation
needy)’, ‘Safe Move (traffic safety culture),’ ‘Green Move (restoration of na-
ture)’, and ‘Happy Move (volunteering activities) are the core of major social
contribution activities that HMC is practicing. In particular, it took the lead
in achieving a safe and enjoyable traffic culture everywhere in the world by
promoting various original programs as a global automobile company last
year. Prime examples are the launch of ‘Kids Hyundai,’ an integrated safety/
environment brand for children, the protagonists of the future, opening of
‘Robocar Poli Children’s Traffic Park,’ and expanding a traffic safety campaign
that uses the popular character Robocar Poli throughout the world, including
China, Russia, and Israel, etc. Moreover, HMC is striving to establish the right
traffic culture through the activities in order to prevent road-kills, recover the
natural ecology, and secure biodiversity at the same time.
Since last year, HMC’s ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers’ has made outstand-
ing achievements through ‘Finding Happiness’ that helps children who lost
parents in traffic accidents, as well as ‘Finding a Dream,’ a 1:1 mentoring
program that helps realize middle and high school students’ talent develop-
ment and future dream. By deeply pondering one’s career path and future,
and figuring out ways to realize them, both mentors and mentees re-learned
to be considerate for others, and gained confidence and a sense of accom-
plishment. With these results, HMC has expanded its ‘Looking for Three Leaf
Clovers’ in 2014 and plans to change/develop it from a program that helps
orphaned children’s wish-fulfilling program to the one that actively supports
their career exploration and realization with a step forward. In addition, after
successfully finishing the 1st project of ‘Hyundai Green Zone China’ that
CEOMESSAGE
transforms Chinese desert into green grassland and cultivates wasteland into
dense forest, HMC is scheduled to start the 2nd project in 2013. Through this
HMC will plant useful perennial plants to help prevent the desertification of
Inner Mongolia autonomous region and continue until 2017. Moreover, it has
been laying a foundation to realize the dream of ‘Moving the World Together’
by spreading hope to the world through ‘Happy Move Global Youth Volunteer-
ing’ activities; the organization was launched in July 2008 and has completed
various environmental/medical/educational/cultural volunteering activities in
a total of 28 regions in 18 countries.
<2013 Hyundai Motor Global Social Contribution Activities White Paper>,
soon to be published, has various stakeholders’ voices as well as short and
long stories for hope in HMC’s business sites at home and abroad from the
past year. In particular, the title ‘Brilliant Hope’ is from HMC’s brand campaign
‘Live Brilliant,’ and connotes that ‘Just like a life’s shining moment, HMC will
always be with the moment of shining hope.’
From now on, HMC promises to become the ‘Messenger of Hope’ to deliver
‘Brilliant Hope,’ i.e. ‘Shining Hope,’ throughout the world, like the title of its
white paper. Also, it will expand more continuous, organized, and effective
social contribution activities through smooth communication with the global
CSR network. In particular, it will fulfill its social responsibilities and duties as
a model corporate citizen by strengthening the traffic safety of children, the
leaders of the future, supporting the youth’s dreams and future, and focusing
on creating jobs for the underprivileged. Thank you very much.

Traffic Safety Stories for Childrenthroughout the World
The relationship between Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) and Robocar
Poli has begun since 2010. At that time, HMC received an award in a
renowned overseas film festival, and appointed Robocar Poli, which
HMC was preparing to air domestically, as a public ambassador of traf-
fic safety. It also made a contract with ROI VISUAL to produce another
3D educational animation on traffic safety in addition to the TV series.
Season 1 of <Traffic Safety Stories with Poli> was aired on EBS from
November to December in 2011. Many children could watch the anima-
tion that was available not only on national broadcasts but also on vari-
ous new media such as its official website, internet portal sites, cable
TV, IPTV, YouTube, mobile app, etc. Thanks to the popularity of Season
1, Season 2 was also aired through EBS from March to May in 2013.
Both seasons were produced in DVDs, of which over 50,000 copies
have been distributed to the National Police Agency, daycare centers,
kindergartens, and customers to be used variously as educational con-
tents on child traffic safety. Besides TV and online, HMC runs ‘Robocar
Poli Traffic Safety Class’ campaign and ‘Robocar Poli Kid’s Café,’ and is
actively participating in events such as Seoul Character-Licensing Fair
and Children’s Safety First Experience Expo. In 2014, Robocar Poli Traf-
fic Park opened in Nowon-gu, Seoul so that children can get education
on traffic safety at any time. <Traffic Safety Stories with Poli> is very
meaningful as it is a social contribution program that was created by
the symbiotic cooperation between a large conglomerate and a small-
or-medium-sized corporation. It became a very successful example of
cooperation between large and small businesses in the social contri-
bution area, as HMC took charge of production support and overseas
distribution and ROI VISUAL production to create and distribute cultural
contents. Thanks to the systematic collaboration with professional
institutions of various fields, such as EBS, the National Police Agency,
media, NGO, etc. in addition to HMC and ROI VISUAL, <Traffic Safety
Stories with Poli> could become a child traffic safety campaign loved
by children all over the world.

All children should be protected from dangers of the world. In particular, lower graders in elementary schools and pre-schoolers are vulnerable to car accidents and are in dire need of effective prevention programs. In order to prevent in-creasing child traffic accidents, Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) has developed an educational animation <Traffic Safety Stories with Poli> and is distributing to all children of the world. Robocar Poli, who courageously protects children from all kinds of dangers, can be met not only in new media such as national broadcasting and the internet but also through various offline campaigns. To make a safer world and healthier traffic culture, HMC will try very hard with Robocar Poli.

Robocar Poli’s Achievements to Protect Traffic Safety
<Traffic Safety Stories with Poli> is an educational animation on traffic
content created by using Robocar Poli character under Hyundai Motor
Company’s production support. Its rescue team saves children from all
kinds of traffic and safety accidents, with members including Poli, a po-
lice car faster and braver than anyone else, a very strong fire truck Roy,
a smart ambulance Amber, and a humorous helicopter Heli. All stories
consist of a three-step process centered on actual car accidents so
that children, the target viewers of the program, can understand easily.
Child traffic accidents that can happen in real life are shown first, and
Poli and his friends help solve them; then there is a traffic safety theory
lesson to wrap-up, allowing children to naturally learn about traffic
safety from the stories.
Traffic Safety Classroom with Robocar Poli
In order to contribute to the preventing of child traffic accidents that
have been increasing every year, Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) is run-
ning ‘Traffic Safety Classroom with Robocar Poli’ with ROI VISUAL and
the Citizen’s Coalition for Safety since 2013. Among elementary school
students killed in car accidents while walking, lower graders (1st and
2nd) take up 50.2%, which is more than half. Thus HMC decided that
it was strongly necessary to focus on giving traffic accident preventive
education to children in lower grades. In 2013, HMC received online
applications from childcare centers for 1st and 2nd graders in Seoul
and 6 metropolitan cities in the country, selected a total of 139 classes
for education, and have had instructors to visit there directly to conduct
trainings five times a year since November. The training is composed of
various programs, such as showing seasons 1 and 2 of <Traffic Safety
Stories with Poli>, having lessons on theory and practice, following the
dance routine of traffic safety-related theme song, and giving souve-
nirs. Additionally, the education is giving unforgettable memories to all
of its participating children by distributing various souvenirs for free,
such as stationary sets and traffic safety goods—including the DVDs
of <Traffic Safety Stories with Poli> seasons 1 and 2—that were made
using the animation characters. For childcare classes and regional child
centers that cannot participate in the education, HMC has distributed
the DVDs of <Traffic Safety Stories with Poli> through application. In
2014, HMC also plans to conduct traffic safety classes for 1,050 kinder-
gartens and daycare centers and 30,000 children.

in advance for traffic safety education on HMC Robocar Poli

Safety ( www.safelife.or.kr).
Seoul Character Licensing Fair
An offline event is also an important program allowing children to experience various traffic safety educations and meet Robocar Poli character in real, which they could see only in videos. Since 2011, Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) has been sponsoring Seoul Character Licensing Fair held in COEX, Seoul every July, and has been directly partici-pating in ‘Robocar Poli Children’s Traffic Safety Special Exhibition Hall’ that it made. This special exhibition hall is comprised of an animation theater, traffic safety experi-ence hall, and character experience hall, as well as distributes DVDs to participating children and presents a variety of attractions and events.
HMC’s themed branch, Robocar Poli Kid’s Café
‘Robocar Poli Kid’s Café’ is a place loved by children and parents. After having run a kid’s cafe for customers with children free of charge in Yong-in branch, Gyeonggi-do since 2011, HMC also opened a new kid’s café at its Daeduck Valley branch in Daejeon in 2012. The café is gaining high popularity by children and parents who can spend enjoyable time and experience traffic safety training and playing with Robocar Poli’s characters.
Children’s Safety First Experience Expo
Also, by creating a separate ‘Robocar Poil Traffic Safety Experience Hall’ in ‘Children’s Safety is the Best Experience Fair’ that HMC holds every January since 2012, HMC en-ables children to directly experience and be familiarized themselves with traffic safety with their favorite characters.
Enjoyable Experiences to Meet Robocar Poli in Real
Korea’s First Character Traffic Safety Education Facilities ‘Robocar Poli Children’s Traffic Park’
Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) pondered whether it could build a
space for constant use where more children could experience traffic
safety with Robocar Poli they like. Such desire came true in a children’s
traffic park located in Joonggye-dong, Nowon-gu, Seoul. HMC joined
forces with ROI VISUAL, Nowon-gu, and the Citizen’s Coalition for
Safety for remodeling of the country’s first traffic park, opened in 1998,
as private and public joint cooperation. On April 3rd 2014, ‘Robocar Poli
Children’s Traffic Park’ opened after it was newly finished. The traffic
park, being managed free of charge, arranged various exhibition and
experience facilities: an outdoor road traffic safety learning center; bike
safe riding experience center; children’s school bus experience hall;
Robocar Poli traffic safety Animation Theater; life safety training center
per weather; construction site road safety training center, etc. The park
was recreated as a space for children to enjoy and experience at the
same time. The park is a great place for families’ outing as it also has
a playground and public rest area. HMC expects Robocar Poli Children’s
Traffic Park, open permanently, to play a huge role in preventing child
traffic accidents.

China
With a number of cars owned increasing rap-idly in China these days, traffic accidents are increasing as well. As a company that manu-factures and sells about 1,000,000 annually in China, Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) is con-ducting various social contribution activities to contribute to traffic safety. A child traffic safety campaign that utilizes <Traffic Safety Stories with Poli> is one of such activities. From August 2013, season 1 was aired through a popular TV program <Jin Guizi Castle> on China’s public broadcast CCTV-14 (children’s channel), and had a high viewing rate. In December, Robocar Poli was appointed as a child traffic public ambas-sador by China’s Road Traffic Safety Association and the Red Cross China under the Ministry of Public Security. Thanks to the huge popularity of season 1, season 2 was aired from Janu-ary 1 through April in 2014. The animation is also continuously aired on LE TV, YOUKU, and Tencent, China’s biggest video media. From now on, HMC plans on holding various offline traffic safety campaigns such as on-the-go traffic safety classrooms, traffic safety knowledge contest, child traffic safety experience center, etc. for children to participate directly and enjoy.
Israel
Robocar Poli Traffic Safety Campaign visited Israel. From October 2013 seasons 1 and 2 were aired in order on Nick Jr. the best children’s channel. The campaign also participated in Nick Jr.’s Hanukah Promotion (Cool Hanukah with Nick); it received much love from children by showing a costumed character performance for traffic safety education, which composed of content from <Traffic Safety Stories with Poli>, during a promotion carried out with 22 shopping malls and department stores. Hyundai Motor India Foundation(HMIF) also had active offline campaigns by establishing Robocar Poli Traffic Safety rest areas, decorated with photo walls, character toys, experience spaces, etc. in exhibition halls of 20 Hyundai Motor Company branches, as well as by distributing DVDs. In 2014, Hyundai Motor`s distributor in Israel will actively promote on/offline campaigns in order to prevent child traffic accidents.
Russia
Robocar Poli has a huge popularity in Russia
as well. In 2013, Hyundai Motor CIS(HMCIS)
aired ‘Robocar Poli Children’s Traffic Safety’
and received many positive responses in
Russia. HMCIS had a high viewing rate of
9.7% on average when it aired 26 videos on
Russia’s CTC children’s channel for 7 weeks,
and enabled videos to be viewed on X-media
digital. It actively promoted offline cam-
paigns, participating in ‘Moscow CITY DAY’
event held on Moscow City’s birthday on
September 7, and had a Robocar Poli traffic
safety event that consisted of theaters and
exhibition halls. From May 2014, HMCIS is
also running ‘On-the-go Traffic Safety Class-
rooms’ for 50 kindergartens, and conducted
traffic safety campaigns Children’s Day on
June 1st, and has been carrying out other

As the first 3D traffic safety animation of automobile industry, <Traffic Safety Stories with Robocar Poli> had a very high viewing rate and was very well-received as soon as it was aired after its first episode on EBS in 2011. This has energized Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) to advance into Russia, China, and Southeast Asia and spread its traffic safety campaign through Poli for all children all over the world. Such success was the result of HMC’s experiences and competence that allowed it to set a firm goal and go af ter the goal despite trials and errors. Let ’s hear about overseas expansion process and behind stories from Assistant Manager Mijin Na.

Global Expansion throughOverseas Branches
With overseas attention and domestic popularity, Robocar Poli’s global expansion is said to have had unexpected difficulties, unlike its expectation to keep on rolling without any crises. Assistant Manager Mijin Na spoke candidly of such difficulties: “We thought we could expand globally at ease through the company’s homepage, DVD and YouTube at first. But the influence through online was smaller than expected. Then we tried broadcasts, which were not easy as well; it was due to our little understanding of broadcasting and animation fields. Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) faced unforeseen difficulties because it was the first time trying to advance globally by using social contribution contents. The video contents were produced to be used widely throughout the world, but it was very hard to find the means of expansion. Normally, when publicizing you should in-troduce characters through broadcasts and utilize them offline to raise their awareness, but such ways created language problems. Unlike our country that uses only one language, other countries had a mix of various dif-ferent languages such as Arabic, African, French, etc. so for children for those we had to dub in languages used in
each region.” Such language and country problems led them to change their strategies. “We learned that we should select a few countries to broadcast by using both online and offline, and that we need foothold strategies for offline campaigns through that. Thus we decided that it would be good to conduct the campaign mainly in countries with HMC’s major overseas branches, and se-lected BRICs countries with manufacturing branches and have carried out the campaign so far. Also, broadcasting systems and laws were different in every country so it was not easy to follow them. There were more restric-tions in each country than expected, so we felt wistful for not being able to utilize Poli more smoothly and variously even though we could have.” Such sense of wistfulness will enable HMC to make a much greater use of its overseas branch networks and marketing ability to spread the campaign in more various ways from now on.
Creating Social ContributionProjects Together
As HMC participated in planning/supervising and mar-keting, it could have been able to advance into the vari-ous global markets by using its global network. However, ‘Robocar Poli Traffic Safety Campaign’ can be said to be a more valuable success as it was completed through cooperation with ‘Citizen’s Coalition for Safety (CCS)’ and ‘ROI VISUAL.’ “From the animation production step and even after season 2 was completed, we are always conversing with ‘ROI VISUAL’ and ‘CCS’ on instant messenger. We are sharing opinions and discussing our next plans in every planning process that uses Poli, from on-the-go traffic safety classes to the remodeling of a traffic park that opened recently,” said Assistant Manager Mijin Na. Also, she conveyed her team’s strong ambitions: “Such continuous collaboration became an effective preventive training to ‘CCS,’ a non-profit orga-nization that aims the expansion of safety culture; ‘ROI VISUAL’ could create a positive enterprise image with awareness that it is a good character for educational purposes. I hope HMC’s efforts for ‘Moving the World Together’ are more than merely a business value of successful animation characters, and gain effects of
raising awareness on traffic safety more naturally, with children seeing the HMC logo. I want to work hard and support in more various ways, so that a firm’s social contribution activities are not projects to gain greater promotion effects for more profits but rather to create right values in society. We look forward to how far the globally expanding ‘Robocar Poli Campaign’s social con-tribution activities can develop.

Disappearing Lives of Wild Animals due to Road-kills
How many wild animals die of road-kills? Surprisingly, the number
reaches no less than 300,000 animals in a year. The length of all roads
reach 100,000 km, and the number of cars 19 million in Korea. On such
many roads, wild animals including roe deer, elks, and raccoons are
road-killed and are dying in pain. Road-kills occur due to various factors
disturb habitats of wild animals, such as: lack and inadequacy of eco-
logical paths; destruction of habitats due to road constructions; prey-
picking; opening of hiking trails and poaching; damaging forests and
green belts; increase of cars and speeding, etc. A large number of wild
animals whose habitats are invaded are road-killed when crossing a
street for survival. Road-kill is very dangerous not only for animals but
also for cars. Road-kill leading to a secondary traffic accident to threat
human lives and damage properties is increasing rapidly. Thus, road-kill
is a problem in everyone who uses roads, such as a road traffic-related
policy institution, management institution, and drivers, is all related,
and urgently needs preventive measures to be prepared.
Road of Death to Warm Road of Life
A responsible global corporate citizen, Hyundai Motor Company (HMC)
has continuously conducted ‘Safe Move’ activities for traffic safety and
‘Green Move’ activities for environmental protection as major social
contribution activities. For new ways to accomplish the establishment
of a proper traffic culture, restoration of natural ecology, and the secur-
ing of biodiversity together, HMC founded Korea Road-kill Prevention
Association (KRPA), the country’s first road-kill prevention group. HMC
has been actively supporting the association’s activities by providing
funds for its founding and operating, and vehicles for monitoring. KRPA
was organized with HMC’s Ulsan plant as a pivot. Since 2005, Ulsan
plant has devoted itself to the restoration of local ecology by restoring
habitats of sericinus telamon and building a butterfly eco park in Tae-
hwa River Grand Park. Through such capabilities and experiences, HMC
has been able to discover entirely new social contribution activities
that connect cars, people, and nature. Having Deputy General Manager
Chang-hee Kang of Environment Team of Ulsan plant as the Standing
Representative, KRPA has signed contracts with Taehwa River Preser-
vation Association and the Korean National Council for Conservation of
Nature (KNCCN), etc., carrying forward businesses together. By actively
recruiting members for activities, a total number of members is 239
people as of June 2014. The members of KRPA get involved in various
activities, such as rescuing wild animals by monitoring road-kills, in-
stalling ecological paths, and participating in prevention campaigns, in
order to contribute to change the roads of death to the roads of life.

SAVINGPRECIOUS LIVESON ROADS
Road-kill, in which a wild animal loses its life by a traffic accident while crossing a road. Even at this point, many pre-cious lives of wild animals are disappearing on roads throughout the country. There are many people who believe that it is unfortunate but that is how it is, and is sad but has nothing to do with them. However, road-kills can be prevented well with a bit more attention and consideration. In order to find safe roads for people and animals, Hyundai Motor Company and Korea Road-kill Prevention Association have gathered their strengths together. They are trying to make a healthy ecology in which all lives are respected through road-kill prevention, wild animal rescues, and protection activities. A surprising miracle to save a dying life on a road has already started.

Efforts to Prevent Road-kills and Protect Wild Animals
As a part of nature, our land’s wild animals have the right to lead a safe
life. Based on that creed, Korea Road-kill Prevention Association hopes
to contribute to the making of policies and environment where people
and animals coexist in nature by protecting wild animals. The associa-
tion’s major responsibilities include but are not limited to: investigating
wild animals and current status of road-kills; securing proper ecologi-
cal paths; feeding and preserving wild animals; rescuing wild animals;
restoring natural-ecological resources such as endangered species;
conducting road-kill prevention education and campaigns, etc.
In 2013, the foundation year, the very first activity was road-kill moni-
toring for major national highways in Youngnam region. Members
held investigations directly in major road-kill black spots twice every
month. Data from the investigations are to be stored as database and
be utilized as important data to install ecological paths and set up
countermeasures to prevent road-kills, etc. Also, KRPA conducted road-
kill prevention safe driving campaigns to alert vehicle drivers and give
them a sense of responsibility. In addition, it had an acorn-preservation
campaign to preserve wild animals’ food, and made keychain-shaped
campaign items, which can be hung in backpacks, and distributed 3,000
of them to hikers. KRPA hopes that a campaign that targets hikers
becomes an effective method to preserve wild animals’ food in forests.
Furthermore, KRPA held a wild animal feeding event in a nearby area of
Ulsan’s major habitat for migratory birds, in order to help wild animals
prepare for winter as it would be hard for them to find food in cold win-
ter weather. KRPA also had an investigation on the ecology of wild ani-
mals’ food in Baek-un Mountain area of Uljoo-gun, Ulsan-city in order
to have a more accurate understanding of their food, and made food
samples by collecting 300 species of every wild animal’s food. The food
samples will become important learning materials for many people to
understand wild animals’ food ecology.

Dreaming for a Beautiful Coexistence of Humans and Wild Animals
Korea Road-kill Prevention Association (KRPA) plans to conduct more
vigorous activities in 2014. It will activate road-kill monitoring even
more and rescue animals that are hurt or are falling behind by orga-
nizing a wild animal rescue team. KRPA will also promote an acorn
preservation campaign, acorn moneybox distribution project, and wild
animal food preservation, and plans to hold a road-kill photo exhibi-
tion and road-kill prevention photo/poster contest. Furthermore, it will
continuously have a road-kill prevention safe driving campaign for
drivers, and will work with more employees and citizens together by
expanding membership.
Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) will provide unlimited support and co-
operation for KRPA’s activities to be successful. It will lend support for
wild animals to secure free rights to passage and stay away from road-
kill threats, and all humans and wild animals to gain safe roads. HMC
will try its best to help humans and wild animals coexist well by taking
a step forward from road-kill prevention to a life-respect movement
that protects the dignity of all life.

“Korea Road-killPrevention Association’s
ultimate goal isto make a world
where people andwild animals can all live
safely togetherby having more people
participating inroad-kill prevention
than now. ”
To make a safe environment for all peo-ple and wild animals, Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) founded Korea Road-kill Prevention Association for the first time as a domestic corporation.
So far, Ulsan plant has been trying hard to restore the lo-cal ecology since 2005. While continuously carrying out its projects in environment and ecology field, it faced the severity of road-kill problems. Road-kill is not an issue that can be solved by an individual effort. Thinking that everyone’s participation was needed to prevent road-kills led to making the association. We had faced many difficulties until its establishment, but could do so suc-cessfully and have conducted activities so far thanks to active support by HMC Welfare Support Team.
KRPA has have various activities such as road-kill monitoring of major high-ways in Youngnam regions, a wild animal feeding event in a nearby area of Ulsan’s major habitat for migratory birds, road-kill prevention campaigns, etc. Until now, you have contributed to road-kill prevention projects through many activities from every area, such as investigation, rescue, protection, publicity, etc.; which one was the most impressive activity among them?
HMC is the first among domestic cor-porations to recognize the road-kill problem and give support. Its support to Korea Road-kill Prevention Association is evaluated to have pioneered a new automobile-related social contribution field. How do you think about HMC’s such attempts? I also wonder about KRPA’s direction from now on.
When founding KRPA at first, I looked up cases studies of road-kill prevention association at home and abroad. However, there was none that focuses only on road-kill prevention activities. Korea ranks number 1 in the rate of roads in national territory. Korea is probably the only country to have Road-kill Prevention Association throughout the world. It has already been a year since it was founded. I feel very proud that has pioneered a new social contribution area but feel very responsible to do better. I have continuously had road-kill prevention activity campaigns, which have picked up a lot of inter-est on road-kill prevention as inquiries for branches keep coming in from large cities such as Asan, Busan, and Gwangju. The most important thing right now is to devel-op more capabilities of the association, inform road-kill prevention throughout the country, and encourage more participation by citizens and drivers. We need a means of communication to share concerns on ‘what prevention activities we can develop.’ Through that, Korea Road-kill Prevention Association’s ultimate goal is to make a world where people and wild animals can all live safely together by having more people participating in road-kill prevention than now.
We had a ‘nest-building’ event in April. It was an event to raise awareness of wild animal protection for HMC employees and Ulsan citizens, and received great re-sponses as 60% of the total of 300 participants were ordinary citizens. Participating families made nests to-gether, and the finished nests were installed in Solmaru-road area in Ulsan which is frequently used by many citizens. These seasons were made in appropriate size for spawning for mountain birds that have spawning season from April to July; the nests could not be any better for the birds and played a role in increasing the number of mountain birds. Above all, I think the event was a good opportunity for the participating families to gain a sense of accomplishment by participating in an activity to protect wild animals and become more aware of them. Meanwhile, ‘Poster and Photo Contest for Road-
kill Prevention’ was held in May. 26 works were selected among a total of 300 participants’ works. As for the contest, I thought it was very appealing that we could inform the problems and severity of road-kills at once through posters and photos. The two activities above could encourage citizens’ participation and raise aware-ness of wild animal protection.

A WORLD WHERE CHILDREN GROW SAFELY AND HEALTHILY
Children, the protagonists of the future, have the right to grow safely and healthily. However, our society, putting ex-penses and efficiency first and having neglected safety, is hugely lacking conditions to protect and take care of children from all kinds of accidents and incidents. As a global corporate citizen and an automobile company, Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) feels responsible and has been putting diverse efforts to create a safe society and clean environment to pass on to the future generation. However, it knows well that it has more tasks to do from now on. With the name Kids Hyundai, HMC will more systematically and strategically take a lead in creating a new world where children can live safely and healthily.

Child Safety through QuizzesLet’s Enjoy Learning about Safety
Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) worked very hard and did many re-
searches to figure out what fun and easy ways children could learn
about safety there would be. It wanted to provide opportunities for
children to think and learn about safety, and for families and teachers
to promote safety awareness. Then, HMC thought of a quiz contest
that children, parents, and teachers could all participate together. That
was how ‘Children’s Safety Quiz Contest in Korea’ started in 2009.
In 2013, the 5th contest had its preliminary rounds through online web-
sites with three divided sections: higher graders of elementary school
students, lower graders, and preschoolers. The preliminary had 40
questions from 9 safety areas—traffic, life, kidnapping/missing child,
sexual violence, fire, disaster, cyber, play, school safety, etc.—to be
solved in 40 minutes. In this preliminary that was held from March 25th
to April 16th, a total of 11,200 children participated from the entire
country. With the individual preliminary, HMC conducted ’30 BEST Safe
Classes,’ in which each school class unit participates, to be used as a
safety learning material in education sites.
In the final round that was held in Seoul Kids Auto Park and Gwang-
naru Safety Experience Hall on April 28th, 100 children who passed the
preliminary competed their knowledge on safety for ‘Safety Quiz King.’
With certificates for children with excellent results in the final round,
scholarships were given to lower graders, opportunities for overseas
safety culture to higher graders, and all participating children received
safe child awards.

Through various safety experiences,I’ve become a smart safety-first child
In terms of child safety, knowledge in head is important but hands-on
experiences are especially helpful. Training through such hands-on ex-
perience play a crucial role in dangerous situations. In order to provide
various safety experience opportunities to children, Hyundai Motor
Company (HMC) has held ‘Children’s Safety First Experience Expo’ since
2012. It is the biggest safety expo in Korea where children can directly
experience and learn diverse facilities and programs on safety, and any
child in elementary schools or younger can participate for free.
‘The 2nd Children’s Safety First Experience Expo’ that was held for
three days from February 21, 2013 drew about 12,000 participants and
gained huge popularity. The expo had an experience hall, exhibition
hall, and play hall to present about 30 of various safety experience
programs. Through experiences such as traffic safety, fire drills, actions
during disaster/calamity, safe driving experience, how-to-use-a-fire-
extinguishing, missing child/kidnapping prevention puppet show, safety
education videos, etc., children could learn safety knowledge and train-
ing that are necessary in daily life in enjoyable ways.
Meanwhile, Kids Hyundai ran a program for children to learn 5 safety
areas they must know and issued children’s safety first certificates to
those who completed the lessons on Children’s Safety First website.
In daycare centers and kindergartens, safety learning materials were
utilized for preschoolers to learn before school and elementary school
students to submit as winter break homework. By pushing it as a re-
quired safety education course, HMC plans to develop Children’s Safety
First as Korea’s representative child safety program, so that children and
parents directly learn and experience about safety together.

More than 100,000 cases of child traffic accidents occur in our country
every year. Among them, many accidents occur particularly during com-
muting hours on weekdays. In order to protect children from commute
traffic accidents, Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) donates ‘Wings of
Angel,’ school bus boarding protectors, to daycare centers, kindergar-
tens, and other nursery facilities across the country.
Wings of Angel are foldable safety devices made of sponge and work
automatically with opening or closing of a door after it is attached
to a vehicle door. School bus drivers or other drivers can easily check
whether the vehicle door is opened or closed, such that traffic acci-
dents arising either from not being able to see the children boarding or
driving with doors open can be prevented. Since October 2008, HMC
started making donations to facilities for severely disabled children,
and provided wings of angel not only to regular daycare facilities
but also to disabled child care center in 2010 and to night childcare
kindergartens. Since 2011, with the Ministry of Public Administration
and Security, HMC has been donating wings of angel to educational in-
stitutions that completed child school bus driver training, and donated
about 9,700 of them to child care facilities all over the country.
Furthermore, mother safety instructions of the Citizen’s Coalition Safety
directly visit the donee daycare centers and kindergartens and conduct
‘On-the-go Traffic Safety Visiting Education’ This education give easy and
fun explanations about child traffic safety, offering an opportunity not
only for children but also for teachers and parents to raise awareness on
traffic safety. The daycare centers that wish to install wings of angel can
visit Kids Hyundai website to register stories and apply.

Let’s Draw a Green Country with Children’s Pure Innocence
In order to inform children of the importance of environment, Hyundai
Motor Company has been holding ‘Green Country Drawing Contest
for Children in Korea’ every year. The contest is playing a huge role in
instilling hopes in children to preserve our beautiful and green land,
improving the public awareness on environmental preservation, and
expanding practical movements.
Year 2013 marked the 26th contest, in which 100,000 people visited
the drawing contest website and 53,000 children from kindergarten-
ers and elementary schools all around the country participated in the
intense preliminary round. In the final round held on Seoul Nanji Chun
Park on October 13, a total of about 30,000 people, including 10,000
children who passed the preliminary and their families, participated
and made the contest successful. The contest had an individual con-
test, divided into three categories—: kindergartners, lower graders
of elementary school, and higher graders of elementary school—and
a group contest consisting of 10 preschoolers in each group to par-
ticipate. With a theme of environmental protection,’ the participating
children expressed their innocent thoughts about environment. Also,
they spent a great time with their families as they enjoyed a variety
of related events such as environmental art experience programs,
recreations, celebratory performances, etc. Top winners were awarded
with certificates and prizes, and prize-winning works were shown in
an exhibition for three days. In particular, an overseas volunteering trip
and a cultural exploration opportunity were offered to 100 elementary
school student winners and group award winners. They visited China in
November, and gained a more valuable experience by having a ‘Green
Country Mural Painting’ activity, that shows the longing for a green
country coexisting with nature, with Chinese children in Beijing Sorim
Martial Arts School.

Making the Wish to Find Happiness Come True
‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers’ is a main program of ‘Safe Move,’ one of Hyundai Motor Company (HMC)’s 4 Moves of Social Contribution Project. It is an activity that brings
everyday happiness to children who suffer from the loss of parents from tragic traffic accident by giving them what they have wanted or granting their wishes. Unlike other sup-
port projects for child victims of traffic accidents that are limited to temporary scholarship grants, Looking for Three Leaf Clovers is special as it also provides emotional support
by granting the children’s wishes. Since the start of the project in 2005, a total of 1,266 child victims of traffic accidents have found small but valuable happiness through Look-
ing for Three Leaf Clovers by 2013.
Every May, Looking for Three Leaf Clovers accepts applicants from children who lost their parents in traffic accidents. Middle and high school students under 18 years of age,
who suffer from severe financial and psychological distress due to the passing or disability of parents by car accidents, can apply. The selected applicants, who pass through
screening, participate in a wish-fulfilling camp during summer vacations and get to fulfill their wishes until the end of the same year. Until 2012, HMC supplied the children
with necessity items and supported desired activities. In 2013, HMC established a 1:1 career mentoring to support their future dreams, not only their current happiness, through
wish-fulfilling. It selected college student mentors to help the children find their dreams, and supported the career mentoring activities such as a 5-month on-field job-shadowing
and meetings with job professionals. Moreover, HMC provided career-related educational expenses to the children and helped them take a step closer to achieve their dreams.
Looking for Three Leaf Clovers has been developed as HMC’s global social contribution campaign and been conducted actively in other countries. So far, HMC has sponsored
supplies, expenses, and activities to grant wishes of children—who lost their parents in car accidents—in many other countries in the Middle East, Africa, Central and South
Americas, and Eastern Europe.

A four-leaf clover’s floral language is ‘fortune,’ but a three-leaf clover’s is ‘happiness.’ Happiness felt nearby is much more precious than fortune that comes once in a while. Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) Looking for Three Leaf Clovers started with such simple belief. Children who lost their parents due to unforeseen traffic accidents are suffering from severe financial and psychological distress even after such tragedies. HMC is conducting Looking for Three Leaf Clo-vers, a dream-finding project for those children to dream for a new tomorrow and not lose courage in difficult environ-ments. HMC will be a sound supporter for the children’s journey to find true happiness.

Finding Happiness Plus Finding Dreams
In 2013, Looking for Three Leaf Clover for granting wishes of children of those who died by traffic accident continued. For 2013, we have newly
started mentoring program called ‘Finding a Dream’ added on to the existing ‘Finding Happiness,’ which was the wish-granting program. It is be-
cause, as we continued Looking for Three leaf Clovers, we have realized that a long-term support program for granting the dreams and future wishes
of children of those who died by traffic accidents is critically needed. While ‘Finding Happiness’ sought to bring happiness by supporting supplies,
money, or activities that the children wanted to do, ‘Finding a Dream’ helps development of talent and the realization of future wishes to junior high
and high school children who are anxious about colleges and their pathways. After going through strict examinations, we have started the expedi-
tion of Looking for Three Leaf Clover by selecting 80 people for ‘Finding Happiness’ and 20 people for ‘Finding a Dream.’ We have increased the
professionalism by cooperating with ‘People’s Association for Practicing Safe Life’ for ‘Finding Happiness’ and with a professional mentoring NGO
‘A Better World’ for ‘Finding a Dream.’
‘Finding Happiness’ that Realizes One’s Dreams
The participants of ‘Finding a Happiness’ selected in 2013 participated in two days of wish-granting camp that was from July 26th to 27th. We had a fun time by having wish cer-tificate ceremony and wish counseling, as well as water safety education and fun recreation time. From the wish granting activity that was from August to the end of the year, the children wished things like electronic devices, IT devices, furniture, medical supplies, school expense, hospital expense, family trips, etc. Mother chaperons from ‘People’s Association for Practicing Safe Life’ connected each one of the children and granted their wishes.
‘Finding Dream’ for Discovering Talents and Pathways
Children of those who died from traffic accidents are prone to deviation or discouragement in their adolescence because their wants for dreams and pathways might not be realized by their social and economic environments. That is why the helps of senior students who can share their worries and give advice are critical. ‘Finding a Dream’ connected junior and high school mentees with college mentors one on one. Its purpose is to give hopes, increase confidence of the children through continuous mentoring, and to prepare the foundation of independence.

New Change in Looking for Three Leaf Clovers
In order to continue to results of ‘Finding a Dream’ that was done in 2013, we will expand ‘Finding a Dream’ in ‘2014 Looking for Three leaf Clovers.’
Unlike the previous program that granted children’s wishes by supporting supplies, money, and activities, the program will be changed from 2014 to
the program that supports the pathway of the children of those who died by traffic accidents. Eighty people, consisting of forty children of those who
died by traffic accidents and forty college students, will participate in the program and have 1:1 pathway mentoring, meeting with experts in inter-
ested field, field trip to the job site, etc. HMC will actively support the program so that the children of those who died by traffic accidents will search
their pathway and realize their dreams through ‘Finding a Dream’ program.
Selection and Education of College Mentors
In May 2013, we recruited mentors for ‘Finding a Dream’ from college students majoring in subjects related to the pathways of the children. It was so popular that 300 people applied for 20 spots. 20 college mentors, who were selected after three examinations, sought to develop the talents of the mentees and contribute to their emotional stability by searching for their pathways together three five months of mentoring. Prior to this, there were two times of education for the mentors in June and July. This is because the college students need to overcome the worries about mentoring and to have confidence about themselves in order to become great mentors. Through various education programs such as lectures and planning for mentor-ing, the mentors could prepare for their mentoring by learning about the roles of mentors and directions of mentoring.
Wish-granting Camp for ‘Finding a Dream’
The wish-granting camp for ‘Finding a Dream’ was hosted for four days from July 24th to 27th. On the first day, the mentees and college mentors who met for the first time had ice-breakers through recreation and then shared serious thoughts about their pathways. On the second day, they went around downtown Seoul and did a ‘Finding a Dream’ race of completing missions in order to get closer and enjoy their trips. On the third way, they listened to lectures about selection of correct pathway and occupation as well as design of purpose in life along with MBTI personality test, and had ceremony of delivering wish certificate. And on the last day, the mentors and the mentees presented their mentoring plans that they will accomplish together.
1:1 Mentoring for Discovering Dreams
The mentoring done by mentors and mentees were accomplished through ten meetings for five months from August to December. As they performed various activities for finding dreams such as mentee’s pathway-related experience, meeting with experts, job experience, etc., the mentors and mentees came to better understand each other and to have strong bond. Through the mentoring activities, the children confirmed their pathways or modified their directions by seriously thinking about their pathway and having counseling, and as a result, they achieved various performances such as obtaining certificates, entering colleges and majors that they wanted to go, obtaining jobs, receiving awards from various competitions, etc. It had an effect of increasing emotional confidence and improving the relationship with peers. The mentors, too, had improved responsibility and concerns for others, obtained the sense of achievement and emotional stability, and had an opportunity of thinking carefully about their futures. The ‘Finding a Dream’ mentoring done together by mentors and mentees was a precious experience that made everyone to grow together.

At first, I entered Hyundai Motor Company’s website to apply for ‘Finding happiness’ of ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers.’ But there was something that was called ‘Finding a Dream’ men-toring so I applied for it with the thought of doing whatever I wanted to do. And after few weeks, as I was hanging out in kara-oke with my friend, I got a call. It was an interview call from ‘Finding a Dream’ mentoring. At the time, the male employee who was interviewing me asked me various questions, but there were a lot that I could not answer well because I was scared and did not have much confidence. By the end of the interview, the interviewer asked me if there was anything that I wanted to say, but I said I had nothing to say because I as-sumed that I would not get accepted. After that, I gave up on the mentoring and decided to lose weight by participating in after-school place during my break, but I was contacted that I got accepted to the mentor-ing program. Honestly, I just had a thought that ‘Why did they choose me? I could not even answer properly. If I go to a mentoring program again, I would not know anyone and there

would only be young kids. It doesn’t seem fun and it’s going to be annoying!’ But as I met the mentor sister and spent time to-gether with her through various activities in the mentoring camp, I could solidify my dream of becoming a stewardess. And as I did the mentoring activity, I gradually began to open the door of my heart that I had been closing to my mentor sis-ter. At the thought that I had a person who supported me and who trusted in me by my side, my attitude, which was soon to give up on whatever I did, started to change. When my school had field trip activities to various places, I applied whatever they were. Also recently, I partici-pated in the competition of writing personal introduction. At first, I wrote it without much effort because I assumed that I would not be awarded since both first and second graders participated in it. But when my teacher said its content was good and that I might get the award if I make a little more ef-fort, I was reminded of the personal introduction that I wrote with the mentor sister during the mentoring activities. Based on that personal introduction, I modified the content for three days, and finally completed my personal introduction. After writing it without giving up, I had a thought ‘Would I get the reward? I want to get any reward at least so that I can write it in my school record! No, since I put my best effort in it, I should at least get a Promotion Award!’ As a result, I placed third in the competition and got the Promotion Award. After receiving the award, I thought ‘there is nothing impossible when I do everything with my best without giving up.’ Now I have a mindset of doing things without giving up. Since I went through a precious change because of ‘Finding a Dream’ mentoring of ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clo-vers,’ I want to become a ‘Finding a Dream’ mentor if I have an opportunity so that I can change someone else’s life. I will not forget the precious five months.
I realized that there is nothing impossible when I do my best without giving up

By the time I was applying for ‘Finding a Dream’ mentoring of ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers,’ I was a pathetic person who did not know what I should do and what I wanted to do. Now that I think of it, I had many dreams when I was in junior high and in high school. But as I was chased by my grades and college application process, I was in mathematics education major by the time I was 20, and went through my college life mindlessly, thinking that the Employment Examination would become my pathway. But as I was studying for the Employment Examina-tion like other people after graduating, I grew skeptical whether I meant to spend my 20s like this. However, when I wanted to think about another path, I did not know what I truly wanted to do. It was a moment I felt sorry and sad about myself. As I was wandering around like that, an opportunity came for ‘Finding a Dream’ mentoring’ of ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers.’ After meeting Ah Young, I began to find a road for my own passion. Before staring the mentoring with Ah Young, the word passion was something that was very distant from me. It
I have rediscoveredmy lost passionand found the three-leaf clovers of my life
is because, before that time, I have been living along with the passing time and by what my parents told me. But in order to become a good mentor for Ah Young and to make Ah Young to achieve her dream, I could not leave passion out. Naturally, I began to think about my passion. By the time I decided to do something else by putting the Employment Examination aside for a moment, I did not have a specific thought. So even at the moments I was applying for various companies to get a job, I wondered if it was really okay for me to apply here, but I just thought I wanted to make it in, wherever it was. Now that I think of it, it was pathetic. Then as I searched for colleges with Ah Young to discover her pathway, I looked back at my major that I had put aside for a moment. Now that I think of it, there wasn’t a time when I felt tired as I studied mathematics education. Rather, I had confidence in my studying and thought good of myself when I solved math problems. Then suddenly I had a feeling that I was thinking something wrong. After that, I started thinking about occupations related to my major, and thought of something that I could enjoy, apart from teaching. It was making math textbooks. Like that, I was gradually discovering my path. Now I am working in a small publishing company that makes math textbooks. Every day, I solve math problems, correct them, and classify problems. When the deadline comes close, I pull all-nighters, but I feel happiness every mo-ment that I am alive. I have an urge to do better and to be rec-ognized. Through the five months of mentoring that I had with Ah Young, I have found the true three leaf clover of my life.

Mentor and Mentee‘Finding a DreamProject’that ShinesEach Other’s Future
Based on the fact that the flower language of three leaf clover is happiness, Hyundai Motor Company is con-ducting ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers’ project since 2005, which grants various wishes for children of those who died by traffic accidents, who have been going through difficult times. From this year, we are conduct-ing ‘Finding a Dream’ mentoring program of ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers,’ which provides counseling for college and pathway to children who are currently in junior high and in high school. We have listened to the story of the mentor applicant for this program, which is helping the children to find emotional stability and the ability to prepare for their future on their own.

I am curious of your motivation for ap-plying to ‘Finding a Dream’ mentoring for ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers.’ Why did you apply to this program?
A little before applying to ‘Finding a Dream’ mentoring of ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers,’ I found this sentence while reading a book. ‘Even if a person is living in a city of ten million people, if he is afraid of people, that place is a no man’s island for him.’ And at that time, ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers’ showed me hope. It seemed like it was telling me that this place where we live was not a no man’s island. I think the most important things dur-ing adolescence is dream, love, and confidence for one-self. And I wanted to participate in finding them ‘togeth-er.’ In one year, the occupation that parents preferred the most was said to be ‘government employee.’ Many college students prepare their occupations regardless of their talents in order to find occupational stability. It is easier to accept the reality rather than to find dreams. I was confident that I could nurture my dreams together in the process of finding the dream for my mentee. And it actually happened.
Before the ten meetings, you have begun your mentoring activities after completing mentor education process and camps. How did these education process and camp help you?
There were some inspiring lectures during the mentor education. One lecturer said this. “The best learning is experience. We just have to open up various experienc-es. Then abilities will follow.” At the time, I just felt this ‘power of experience’ with conscious, but as the number of the mentoring increased, I could feel that power with my body. Every time I did new activities, I could discover Jinhan’s new aspects and talents. In fact, in the limited time of ten mentoring, I had an urge to do more things. But I always consulted with Jinhan to set the range and the depth of experience, and that is why all experiences were interesting and beneficial. I think the attractive part
of mentoring is that it is possible to see mentees grow tall despite time limits. Standing to witness that change is a great ‘experience’ for mentors as well. All mentor educations become truly meaningful when they are used within mentoring.
What was the most memorable activity that you did with your mentee (Jinhan)?
Each mentoring was inspiring. The characteristics of mentoring was having different experiences every day and meeting new world through those. But when I have to choose the most memorable activity, I’ll choose ‘visit-ing law school.’ It’s because the satisfaction of a men-tor is bound to be influenced by the satisfaction of the mentee. ‘Vising law school’ was an activity with which Jinhan was highly satisfied. You must go to law school in order to become a prosecutor, and it seems like he learned and realized much from the students who are actually in that process. But apart from this reason, this mentoring was very meaningful to me.
How did you change through ‘Finding a Dream’ mentoring of ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers’?
A lot of things happened. First, I could have a new perspective of looking at the world through various experiences. I was sometimes Jinhan’s big sister, and sometimes felt like I was going back to middle school as I was listening to his concerns. Second, I became a more meticulous and a responsible person. Preparing ten mentoring gives a sense of responsibility since it is being responsible for Jinhan’s ten days. Although I sometimes had much stress as I meticulously went over planning, execution, and financial tasks, I ended of forming good habits. Third, I felt the power of talent, which is small but precious. My major is Korean, which Jinhan finds hard. During the school examination period, I helped Jinhan’s studying, and because he followed me well, his grade could improve. Fourth, I learned the preciousness of each day. Jinhan said that he found his
dream through the ten mentoring. His personality has changed, his weekends have changed, and his attitude for preparing his dream has changed. These are gifts that we received as a result of spending our ten days wisely. And these gifts became reasons that I should spend each of my life in precious ways. Fifth, I realized that finding dream is done in every moment of our lives. “I want to help poor people and want to make a just society.” Through the mentoring with Jinhan, I learned that although this might be an innocent and a simple beginning, dreams might have been being realized each moment when we cherish that mind.
Although you have made sufficient preparation through mentor education and mentoring camp, you probably have felt some lacking points or pride after completing the activities.
The pride of a mentor comes from the attitude of the mentee. These are the attitude of treating the mentor, the attitude on dreams, satisfaction of the mentee, etc. At the fifth mentoring, we wrote about introducing each other as the mid-term evaluation. At that time, Jinhan wrote this sentence at the end. ‘When I go places with Jungran teacher, I naturally feel happy. Jungran teacher is truly a good teacher who gives smiles to people.’ He says that I am funnier than a comedian, and I felt really happy whenever I heard that. Making a dream will be enjoyable only when the process of finding that dream is enjoyable. I believed that if Jinhan thinks the mentoring is enjoyable, he will make it to the end even when the mentoring ends. Despite that, I had some lacking points. The duration of ten times felt a little short. There were some activities that I had to give up although I wanted to do them. Although our purpose was to do important activities in a limited period, I inevitably had regrets.
Please tell me how social contribution activities like ‘Finding a Dream project’ of ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers’ influ-
ence those who want to do volunteer activities.
Social contribution activities conducted by corporations provide opportunities for college students and young adults to have new experiences. Positive activities give good effects to the world and are important experiences to oneself. You can meet a new world like me. ‘Looking for Three Leaf Clovers’ is one of the ‘new world’ that I met as well. Meeting with a middle school student, planning ten weeks, and finding dreams together are not experiences that anyone can do. Even though I am merely in my mid-20s, I really want to say this. “If you have an opportunity, go out to a wider world whether you walk or ride airplane.” Even though I am still in the process of learning, there was always a better me today than compared to yesterday in the pro-cess of learning.
“I was confident that I could
nurture my dreams together
in the process of finding the
dream for my mentee.”

Another Future Begins in Grassland
The desertification of China is worsening every year. The increasing desert causes yellow sand,
which influences South Korea as well. The area that becomes desert every year in Asia such as
China and Mongolia is 3,500km2, which is six times the area of Seoul. The vicious cycle of grass-
lands and forests disappearing due to excessive grazing, cultivation, picking of medical plants,
climate change, etc., leading to drying of water which in turn causing desertification the shelters
of life is continuing to happen. In order to provide help to preventing desertification of China,
Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) is conducting ‘Hyundai Green Zone China’ since 2008.
Hyundai Green Zone China project is conducted in the region of Chakanor, Neimeng-
gu, which is a representative region of China’s desertification. Chakanor, which was
a giant lake that was divided into the east and the west, has been almost dried up,
becoming a dry desert. In order to make this into a green grassland, we have planted
Gambong, an annual halophyte, which grows well even in alkaline soils, in the
region of western lake in order to make this into a green grassland. Also, we have
conducted sand-protecting barrier task by making walls with tree branches so that
the grass seeds will not fly off by wind.
HMC provided a total of six million yuan to the first project from 2008 to 2012. This
project was especially meaningful because numerous people participated as volun-
teers. In Korea, Happy Move Global Youth volunteer team had visited every year and
volunteered, and the employees of the Chinese corporate body as well as Chinese
citizens and college volunteers chose to volunteer as well. As the hearts and sincer-
ity of volunteers, who have been planting grass seeds silently through sweltering
heat and rough sandstorms, gathered together, the desert gradually began to turn
into a grassland.
After the first project, which was the world’s biggest single grassland construction activity, 50 million m2 of land, which was 60% of the area
of the western lake, has revived as green grasslands. Lizards and insects that live in grasslands have returned as well, proclaiming the happy
news of ecological restoration. In the future, the second project, where we will plant perennial plants useful for preventing desertification,
such as seepweeds, will be continued until 2017. We expect that, as grasslands expand and the ecology is revived, the lives of the residents
who live there will be improved as well. Moreover, it is expected to play a huge role in preventing the yellow dust in China and Korea.

A desert is changed to a green grassland and a wilderness is nurtured to a rich forest. A butterfly is returned to the world, and streams of river are made to be clean again. The activity that Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) is doing with the name of ‘Green Move’ might be something slower and more difficult. Restoration of ecological world does not hap-pen fast or is completed by the hands of one or two people. That is why HMC does not hurry nor give up. As many people make efforts by putting their powers together with a long-term perspective, trees, butterflies, and rivers gradually begin to give positive answers. With the courage that comes from those answers, HMC starts on the road once more. It moves to the old future of the green star Earth where humans and nature live with harmony.

Hope, Growing Taller in the Teak Tree Forest
Forest, which is a treasure of life, is a precious resource that makes numerous lives of plants and
animals, including humans, rich and clean. If forests, which has infinite environmental, economic,
and cultural values, are destroyed, various problems such as extinction of animals and plants,
global warming, air pollution, worsening of water quality, and intensification of natural disasters
occur. That is why it is necessary for sustainable human life to plant trees and nurture forests.
The effort to protect environment and improve the lives of residents through forest is being
conducted actively in India. Beginning in 2011, Hyundai Motor India Foundation ‘GO GREEN
HYUNDAI’ project for creating teak tree forest in wilderness with ‘TIST India,’ a local NGO. This
business is a business that seeks to maintain and manage trees by planting teak tree seedlings
and not logging out for ten years through agreements with 282 rural families in the regions of
Thiruvallur and Kanchipuram. It is an environmental business with new dimension where the lo-
cal residents take care of all processes from planting and nurturing seedlings to harvesting.
After planting 100,000 trees in 2011 and 50,000 trees in 2012, the residents planted a total of
200,000 trees by planting another 50,000 trees in 2013. Teak, which grows a lot in Southeast Asia
including India, is used as various ingredients and components for cooking, ships, automobiles,
architecture, furniture, sculpture, etc., because it does not expand or contract well, does not twist
or split, is easy to manufacturer, and is resistant against disease and insects.
Construction of forests has led to improvements of soil and underground water quality and has cleaned the air. After the
period of contract, all trees and the crops from the trees become properties of contracted rural families, which will provide
a huge help for stabilization of lives of local residents. This project is expected to have a beneficial impact not only for
conservation of nature and development of local economy but for preventing global warming as well. Hyundai Motor India
Foundation also obtained CERs exchange through this business. It is indeed a good business for all of local community,
HMC, and the Earth. We are waiting for the teak trees to grow tall and become green hopes of the Earth and bright smiles
of the local community.

2 Eco Experience Center where children can experience the preciousness of nature
Sericinus montela Butterfly Flies Vigorously Once More
As air pollution is worsening and climate change is happening at a fast rate because of various
developments, the numbers of animals and plants around us that are disappearing are continuing
to increase. Every year, there are news that many animals and plants on Earth are in the threat of
extinction. Only in Korea, the number of wild animals in the threat of extinction selected by the
Ministry of Environment is 246 species.
With the name of ‘Hyundai Green Zone Korea,’ Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) has consistently
conducted activities for protecting natural ecological resources including animals and plants that
are rare or are at the threat of extinction. So far, we have engaged in activities of supporting
protection activities of red-crowned crane, blackfaced spoonbill, barberry shrub, and quillwort,
discharging fry such as Japanese mitten crab, Korean rose bitterling, and Unio douglasiae, eradi-
cating harmful naturalized plant, and protecting local old big trees. The restoration of Sericinus
montela Butterfly is our special representative businesses in which we devoted our resources.
Since, 2005, we have started the restoration Sericinus montela butterflies that faced threat of ex-
tinction by the destruction of habitats in the process of industrialization and urbanization. Follow-
ing the breeding 2006, pupas were recreated in 2007, ultimately achieving successful restoration.
In order to not just stop at the stage of restoring habitats but to let children and local residents to
experience the preciousness of nature living with butterflies, we have constructed Eco Experience
Centers with optimal conditions for Sericinus montela butterflies to inhabit in five regions of Ulsan,
Jeonju, Asan, Hwasung, and Busan. In Eco Experience Centers, all processes from birth of butterflies
to maturation from spring to autumn can be observed vividly. Sericinus montela Butterfly festivals
are hosted in the period of butterfly molting. In 2013, we created educational material for tailed silk
butterfly so that more people would pay attention to preserving natural ecological resources.

Through the restoration of Sericinus montela Butterfly, HMC obtained
precious lesson and experience that combining the strength of cor-
porations and local communities can lead to restoring animals and
plants that are disappearing and being forgotten. Sericinus montela
Butterflies that might have disappeared from the Earth forever; we
will consistently give attention and sincerity in the future so that they
would continue to flap their wings for a long time. In addition, we will
conduct multidimensional efforts in protecting animals and plants that
are rare and are in the threat of extinction by cooperating with local
communities and related institutions.

Focusing on the sites of production plants, Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) is actively conducting ‘1-Company on
nurturing 1-Stream’ by establishing cooperative system between private, public, and corporate bodies along with en-
vironmental organizations and institutions in the local community. It is our goal to improve water quality of streams
and restore water ecosystem in order to preserve environment and increase the quality of life for local residents.
From 2012, Asan plant of HMC started creating ecological park, a hydrophilic cultural space, through cooperation
with city of Asan and the Saemaul Center. In 2012, we planted water-purifying plants in the space of 1,980m2 around
Onyangchun, which had problems with water quality, and constructed ecological park that can be used as shelters
for residents as well as ecological learning space.
In 2013, we planted 13,000 water-purifying plants including Rus-
sian iris in the Onyangchun soil of 1,650m2 and constructed a second
ecological park. In addition, we conducted water-purifying activities
in Onyangchun and Gokgyochun once a month. In October, we hosted
Onyangchun Nurturing Event through cooperation with private/public/
corporate bodies and discharged 40,000 braised carps, native fish, and
threw in EM soil balls. EM soil balls are soil lumps created by battering
microbial enzyme fermented broth and red clay and have outstanding
effects for water purification and odor elimination when thrown in
polluted streams. Results of these efforts are showing as the water
quality of Onyangchun is gradually improving. In 2014, we plan to make
a third ecological park in Onyangchun.
From 2013, Asan plant is also conducting ecological restoration business in Geumgang river basin. From May to November, it conducted water
ecology restoration business in Guil marsh which is near Okchon delivery factory. We constructed Ssamji Park in Guil marsh and consistently sup-
ported EM soil balls for water quality management. Also, in order to expand the participation of local residents, we distributed eco-friendly products
such as organic insecticide and detergent, and purchased organic agricultural products to support disadvantaged groups. In addition, we supported
consulting and education for constructing green villages. In the future, we plan to continue providing environmental education and organic product
support for local residents.

They collect a part of their wages to make funds and go see their neighbors by giving up their sweet oversleeping on weekends. They display their unique talents that they prepared to the maximum. To the employees of Hyundai Motor Company (HMC), shar-ing has become a habit and volunteering has become a party of daily lives. Participations of families are continuously increas-ing and the methods of volunteering are developing every year. In 2013, 129 volunteering groups in business sites throughout the country visited estranged places, including related institutions, in each local community and disadvantaged people to share their hearts and deliver hopes. As bright smiles appear in the neighbor’s faces and energies are added to the society, the em-ployees of HMC become elated as well. It is because the emotional reward through donation and the joy through volunteers have now become precious happiness that cannot be missed.

Volunteering Activities are Developing in New and Fun ways.
Volunteering activities of our employees are evolving as time passes.
The ‘H-Volunteer Designer’ program,’ which started in 2011, shows this
change well. When the employees become ‘designers’ of the volunteer-
ing activities and submits plan reports on volunteer targets, activity con-
tents, time, etc., we select volunteers every month through evaluations
ad provide budgets as well as mentoring of professional organizations.
This program is receiving huge welcomes from our employees because
it can make up for the lacking points of regular visiting volunteers to
related institutions which have limited volunteer targets and time while
fulfilling the desire for volunteering activities. In 2013, we have fulfilled
volunteering activities that we have planned, such as visiting and repair-
ing automobiles of disabled people, supporting women who have migrat-
ed for work and marriage, providing free food for lonely senior citizens,
providing environment education for senior citizens, donating talents,
supporting social welfare, and conducting home repair of love. In 2014,
we plan to improve the program by introducing activities in team units.
‘H-Family Volunteer’ program where all the employees participate together
will be conducted in various ways as well. In 2013, we have shared warm
hearts by spending time with disabled children who use Hanuri Information
Culture Center, which is a welfare center for disabled people. We had four
times of fun experiences in one year such as cooking competition, donation
of sticks with a dragon, knot experience and natural dyeing experience,
making quilts, Running Man game and fun sports event, making natural
products, group domino games, etc. This is settling as the representative
family volunteering activity of our company because participating families
are increasing and the contents are growing rich every year. In 2013, there
was a new change to the family volunteering activity. The ‘H-Family Work-
camp’ program, in which employees, families, and foreigners do volunteer-
ing activities together along with experience education and international
communication, has opened.
In October 2013, families of our employees and foreigners volunteered in
local regions, experienced farming, picked up trash in Dong-river, and joined
in World Food Festival. It was a very meaningful volunteering activity that
promoted communication with family members and foreigners.

We have started volunteering activities on weekdays with ease.
Ulsan Plant has continuously conducted volunteering activities where
employees voluntarily participated along with social contribution
activities in various field for the development of local communities. In
2013, the employees have shared warmth by participating in various
volunteering activities such as home repair of love, 1-Company on
12-Villages, volunteering on connected organizations by the business
department, talent donation, etc. Participation of family members as
well as the employees have increased so there were more sights of
children holding on to the hands of their parents and visiting neighbors
who need help to do volunteering activities.
In 2013, there was a big change in the volunteering activities of the
Ulsan Plant employees. There has been more employees who do volun-
teering activities because of ‘Weekday 1-person 1-volunteer campaign.’
This is because they could participate in volunteer service using the
leisure time in weekdays that has increased by the enforcement of 2
consecutive alternation policy on weekdays. The ‘Weekday 1-person
1-volunteer campaign’ was conducted into two areas – ‘effort service’
where anyone can participate without technical knowledge such as
helping the workforce and ‘professional field’ which need professional-
ism such as papering, balloon art, hands and feet massage, magic, etc.
The employees that applied for professional field received profes-
sional training for some time from volunteering activity center of the
city of Ulsan and conducted volunteering activities in the form of
talent donation for low-income classes, facilities for senior citizens,
local children center, etc.
The number of employees who have completed professional training
from June, 2013 to the end of the year is 300. The employees had high
rates of satisfaction because they could utilize their leisure time and
donate their talents through professional knowledge during weekdays.
In the future, Ulsan Plant plans to extend the program of nurturing pro-
fessional volunteering workforce that can be done with spouses such
as oral narration, smile therapy, sign language songs, etc.
From inside the country to foreign countriesThere is no boundary in sharing
In order to join with neighbors in local community, Jeonju Plant has
conducted volunteering activities by employees in fields like social
welfare, education, cultural art, 1-company on 1-village, etc. Engine
of Hope science class, a program of nurturing young science talents
for elementary school in geographically and educationally alienated
regions, has been conducted for many years. In 2013, 15 employees
have visited 1,309 elementary school kids in 27 schools as lecturers.
Through materials like ‘Single-hearted gyroscope’ and ‘moving cleaning
robot,’ the children had fun time by learning the principles of science
and made science kit. In June 2013, we conducted picnic support vol-
unteering activities for the visually impaired that employees and fami-
lies participated. By inviting 20 visually impaired people, we presented
precious memories for each other by having picnic to County Park in
Gangchun Mountain, Soonchang-gun.
The hearts of Jeonju employees for sharing hopes with their neighbors
transcend national boundaries. After the volunteering activity in Mon-
golia in 2012, 12 of employee volunteering team visited Chile in South
America and provided hands of sharing. As the Hallyu wave is covering
Chile, it is rising as a main market for commercial cars of Hyundai Motor
Company. The volunteering team has conducted Engine of Hope science
class, traffic safety classes, children’s rights protection activities, cultural
experience activities, etc. in the region of Pudauel, which is a place near
Santiago with disadvantaged classes, for nine days.
Engine of Hope science classes, which targeted 180 Chilean elemen-
tary school students, received huge supports as we learned about sci-
ence principles such as inertia and precession in easy and fun ways by
making gyroscope tops with local children using special materials. Af-
ter that, we made use of our characteristic as automobile company to
conduct traffic safety classes, show Robocarpoly animation, and go to
field trip on a zoo. We also provided great enjoyment by presenting K-
POP performance that are employees prepared as a cultural experience
activity. Along with this, we participated in repairing children’s dental
hospital in the region of Ualan, a secluded village, and presented one
automobile so that children and residents living in secluded regions
could use hospitals conveniently.

It’s happier when you volunteer with family members
Volunteering activities of Asan Plant employees are growing richer ev-
ery year. They are fulfilling love to neighbors and local regions through
various activities such as social welfare, education, and 1-Company
on 1-Village, and each volunteering team is visiting related institu-
tions every month to do activities such as providing meals, cleaning,
helping to bath, repairing and maintaining facilities, etc. The Engine of
Hope science class which nurtures potentials of young science talents
continued in 2013 as well. 14 employee-lecturers visited two local
elementary schools every month and made science products that are
used in daily lives in order to teach scientific principles in fun ways. We
especially expanded the science classes in 2013 by selecting college
volunteers to educate 1,000 alienated children in local children’s center
in the region of Chonan.
It is a characteristic of Asan Plant how the volunteer activities where
the families of the employees are participating are continuing to
diversify. In 2013, the families of the employees hosted get-together
camp with North Korean refugee families in Asan. It was meaningful
to connect families of the employees and the families of North Korean
refugees one-on-one in order to facilitate their adaptations to society
and to help improve their relationship with their children.
We also cannot exclude the achievements of housewife volunteering
team consisted of the wives of the employees. Since 2007, the house-
wife volunteering team has been providing meals to senior citizens in
Senior Free Meal Center at Onyangoncheon Station with their warm
sincerity. The delicious meals with healthy nutrients provide precious
happiness to the senior citizens in their daily lives. The children are
participating during their vacations, making the site to become a place
of education for learning to respect old people. The housewife volun-
teering team has also been actively participating in world experience
program for alienated classes done for consoling the relative loneliness
and the sense of loss of children and old people in rural areas. In 2013,
the team toured Namiseom Island with senior citizens living alone and
conducted spring picnic with multicultural families as well as Genera-
tion Sympathy sports event with children in daycare center/kindergar-
tens and senior citizens living alone, sharing the skills of housewives
with the community.

2013 Dream Together Campaign
Let’s make a better future by dreaming together
‘Dream Together’ mentoring campaign in which employees of domestic
business headquarters participate was also conducted in 2013 with
child heads of household. This campaign is the program where the em-
ployees in business sites throughout the country become mentors and
support child heads of households for them grow as social constituents
with right character and leadership. The support targets of Dream To-
gether are selected by recommendations of local elementary schools,
local welfare centers, and NGOs in 500 local sites, and we support var-
ious programs such as cultural and sports activities, talent donations
by employees, consulting for pathway and occupation, improvement of
residential environment, etc., along with donations.
In 2013, ten thousand employees in 519 sites throughout the country
became mentors for 608 elementary, junior high, and high school
students raised by grandparents or a single parent. We prepared 1.52
billion KRW of fund by adding the collection of 810 million KRW by
domestic business headquarters employees and the company support
fund of 710 million KRW to use as activity funds.
In the holiday of Lunar New Year’s Day, we conducted activities that
would provide realistic benefits to the mentees by providing eco-
nomic supports such as daily necessities and memorial service table
expense and by purchasing the goods for preparing memorial service
table together. Also, we conducted home repair of love for improving
residential environment to the family of mentees so that they can
live in more clean and comfortable ways. Every month, we provided
necessities such as books and writing supplies, and supported cultural
activities such as watching movies and plays for emotional growth,
and provided scholarships so that they can focus on studying without
having economic burden.
The ‘Dream Tour,’ conducted by each local headquarter, was especially
liked by all people. Focusing on the characteristics of each region,
‘Dream Tour’ consisted fruitfully through visiting Hyundai Motor Com-
pany plant, exploring local historic sites, and local tourist attractions.
The mentees and mentors who travelled together got to get closer by
escaping daily lives and spending fun times.

To businessmen who have to go through busy sched-ules, weekends are resting period like a gold. There are people who have shaken off the desire to placate the tiredness and stress that has accumulated over the week and to use the leisure time that has been given after a long time for meaningful volunteering activities. Researcher Sa-Hoon Hong at Nam Yang Research Center Power Train Thermal Flow Inter-pretation Team spent May 17, 2014 at Annyeong local children’s center at Hwasung, Gyeonggi-do, having a fun time through pottery-making experience with children. He says that, through the process of planning and implementing volunteering activity items that he wanted to do by himself, he could experience double the amount of satisfaction because he could feel the sense of reward and enjoyment that the voluntary par-ticipation has brought.

H-Volunteer Designer is a groundbreaking attempt that cannot be found in other companies in that it provides an opportunity for each employee to par-ticipate in volunteering activities voluntarily. In fact, there were many people who did not know what to do or where to volunteer because it is not easy to write volunteering plan report for ‘amateur’ volun-teers. With the purpose of making a program that can supplement these points, ‘Volunteering Culture Korea’ has participated in Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) H-Volunteer Designer as a cooperative partner.
The biggest purpose of volunteering activities lies in volunteering mindset and consistency. For these, we are helping the employees of HMC to volunteer voluntarily and consistently by providing mentoring so that they can develop volunteering programs that match their characteristics and matching them with related institutions by considering regions with good accessibility. Unique attempts like H-Volunteer Designer are currently giving big influences in social contribution activities of other companies. Through this opportunity, we hope that new social contribu-tion projects like H-Volunteer Designer will be de-veloped in various ways in order to become policies that will support resources that our society needs.
The Only Piece in the World, Created Stitch by Stitch
Researcher Sa-Hoon Hong, who hangs out and jokes around with children without barriers, looks like he has been known them for a long time. Researcher Hong, who says that he had much thought after the volunteering experience at Holt Children’s Welfare Center when he just entered the company, saw the ‘H-Volunteer Designer’ program. While he was thinking what he could do for children in this opportunity, he has thought of creating pottery-making experience by utilizing the fact that his wife, Young-Sim Lee, majored in the art of pottery. “My wife willingly participated because she had much interest in talent donation, and I could de-vote with consistent participation because the center was not far away from home.”Researcher Sa-Hoon Hong who says it was good that he could start the program without pressure because the company pro-vided everything after he provided the idea, says that he is feeling a sense of reward because the children seem to follow him well and are having fun even though today was just a second class. Today’s lesson is making pottery plate. At the order of the teacher to carve out various patterns with paper on a big background, the children seems to utilize all of their creativity to think of their own works. “EXO? Seung-Woo is an Exo fan?” “I’m going to make it well and keep it forever.” “Gun-hee carved out and put your name proudly like the last time!” “Since I’m the one using the plate, I’m putting my name, of course.” The children who are making pottery with sincerity after listening to the teacher’s kind instructions; we expect unique and great pieces because the children made them with sincerity, stitch by stich.
Happy Connection Linked throughH-Volunteer Designer
Although I think it is a duty to participate in social contribution activities as a part of corporate constituent, there are a lot of people who feel limited because they have interests but do not know what to do or how to participate in volunteering activities. Since 2011, Hyundai Motor Cimpany is operating a new form of volunteering activity where employees plan and implement vol-unteering programs by themselves through H-Volunteer Designer. When the employees submit activity plan report that fit their talents, the company supports activity budget and mentoring after examination. From this year, we are receiving mentoring support on activity recommendation, plan report writing, and overall activities by cooperating with Volunteering Culture Korea, a professional volunteering NGO. It is the spirit of H-Volunteer Designer to increase the pride and the commitment to the com-pany through supports on sharing activities on disadvantaged by neighbors whom we want to give help and to continue sincere volunteering activities continuously through voluntary participa-tion in volunteering activities.“Many colleagues think about something big when they first think about volunteering activities, as I have done as well. Although they have thoughts about it, they begin to worry if they can do it or if it is okay to do what they want to do. I want you to know that anyone can do it if they have the willingness and an idea.”Researcher Sa-Hoon Hong says that it was not burdensome for him to implement his ideas because he received supports from the company and the mentoring from professional volunteering group, and is showing desires for participations by many employees and developments of various items.It is a fact that, although the willingness to volunteer is impor-tant, there are responsibilities that follow as well. This is the reason that voluntary and continuous participation is difficult. In that aspect, H-Volunteer Designer will support more participa-tions and activities by fulfilling its role as a happy connection that links individual employees and the company, as well as related institutions.

We support social welfare business that are needed by the local community
‘Moving the World Together,’ which is our so-cial contribution slogan, represents the will of Hyundai Motors to change the world to a better direction along with neighbors. Moving The World Together : Social welfare public proposal Project began in order to operate social welfare program for areas that are desperately needed in each local community through public par-ticipation that are conducted directly by social welfare institutions and organizations. Since 2005, we have successfully conducted the pub-lic businesses every year, and have selected a total of 305 businesses and supported 4 billion KRW by 2014. It is our characteristic that we do not only provide financial support but also help successful implementation of the program by establishing advisory system consisting of professionals in each field.
We have expanded our support from social welfare to mobile welfare
‘Moving the World Together’ : Social welfare public proposal Project is conducted annually. We receive participation application from September to October every year and select the businesses that we will support through strict examination. By 2012 we supported three aspects of social welfare programs, disabled people, senior citizens, and children and youth, and created mobile welfare vehicle automobile support program in 2013, which combined social welfare and moving convenience, in order to provide welfare to groups that have been estranged from welfare. Mobile welfare vehicle automobile support is a business that supports automobile and repair expense for rural regions or regions with low accessibility up to five years.
We select support programs through selective examinations
Hyundai Motor Company operate every process from application to examination in transparent and fair ways. We examine with the focus on practical effect of the business and detailed implementation policies by creating examina-tion group consisting of scholars and field experts. By selecting the business through strict examinations, we make the funds to be used most efficiently in most needed places. After the completion of businesses, we select and re-ward outstanding institutions, promoting active implementation of the businesses.
We make a more professional social welfare service
Through ‘Moving the World Together’ : Social welfare public proposal Project, Hyundai Motor Company is helping fluent implementation of businesses of social welfare institutions and groups, and is supporting the discovery of more practical and creative welfare businesses in order to make social welfare business more professional. We were able to especially widen the playing field of social welfare business by providing mobile-type welfare service using automobile through mobile welfare vehicle support. Also, formation of partnership with social welfare institutions and organizations, advice from professionals, and networking and information sharing between hands-on workers have provided great support in maximizing the business effect and strengthening the abilities of hands-on workers in social welfare.

Mobile welfare automobile support, which com-bines social welfare and mobile convenience, began 2013. In 2013, we supported job rehabili-tation of disabled people and various welfare businesses for senior citizens in rural regions by providing Porter special purpose vehicle and modification expense to two institutions. We are strengthening mobile welfare in 2014 by expanding the support to 11 institutions and by diversifying the automobiles.
Number of selected institutions for 2013 field on senior citizens is 14. We have received a huge support by conducting various programs such as health management, social participation, and successful management for old age for senior citizens in secluded classes. Senior citizens who participated in the programs acquired positive mindset and new confidence for living their old-age life in healthy and meaningful ways.

Sihueng Senior Welfare Center’s ‘Happy N Party Plan’ granted local
seniors interesting social participation opportunity to become party
planners. At the same time, they are given the chance to experience
the joy of throwing birthday parties for the neglected neighbors as
seniors in home and underprivileged children. Moreover, in 2013, this
event was selected as Hyundai Motor Company (HMC)’s ‘Moving the
World Together : Social welfare public proposal Project’ and received
senior party planner education. As a result, the community enjoyed
very special birthdays with the senior party planners last year.
‘Happy N Party Plan’ drew positive response from the city and received
coverage request from the local community magazine ‘Beautiful Si-
hueng’, but unfortunately they severely lacked transportation means. In
order to carry foods, instruments and various types of party equipment,
party planners had to drive in government cars but there were limita-
tions because the cars were not officially owned by ‘Happy N Party
Plan’. Also using inconvenient public transportation was too physically
demanding for seniors with loads of luggage.
Fortunately, due to HMC’s ‘Moving the World Together : Social welfare
public proposal Project’ 2014, ‘Happy N Party Plan’ finally got its own
car since it was selected for mobile welfare vehicle support program.
We guarantee our party planners will carry various party items and
birthday presents in the car to deliver the most memorable birthday
party that only comes once a year.

Let’s enjoy the party where everyone becomes happy
Siheung Comprehensive Senior Welfare CenterHappy N Party Plan Season 2.
We are curious about the details of activities carried out by ’Happy N Party Plan’
15 seniors form a team to practice performance and visit each resident to throws birthday party. They use various musical instruments to play music, sing birthday song, and perform magic tricks. At first they were a bit clumsy, but they are now performing quite skillfully. People are really touched by the performance and show how much they appreciate. Magic performance frequently gets encore.
What are the possible impacts of mobile welfare vehicle?
Last year, we already carried successful education of party planners from ‘Happy N Party Plan’ through systematic public service program and it certainly grabbed attention of the public. Now that ‘Happy N Party Plan’ of-ficially owns a car, we would like to expand our scope to seniors living in ru-ral areas. We will utilize mobilized welfare vehicles to not only throw birth-day parties but also deliver lunch boxes to seniors living in nursing home. I believe the result of the project was quite successful since HMC supported with great responsibility. Especially professor Joongdong Kwon of depart-ment of social welfare of Mokwon University has given valuable advices. I believe all of the individuals participated in the project were improved in capacity as they constantly went through working-level communications and networking and took advice from variety sectors. HMC was truly unique as they not only supported financially but also backed working-level teams in charge to maximize the outcome. Not many companies do what they do.

Tell us about mobile welfare vehicle’s main activities
Before mobilized welfare vehicle service was initiated, whenever supple-mentary aids repair service center receive malfunctioning device report, we would either bring the supplementary aids equipment to the center or repair at the spot. However, we had a lot of difficulties bringing the device to the repair center because our only car, which belongs to the government, was too small. Due to Hyundai Motor Company (HMC)’s effort in public service project, we made it possible to quickly deliver services to the seniors that are in need of help. Donated cars are so much convenient because it has big enough space to store two moving aids equipment and has cabinet where you can store tools.
What are the possible impacts of mobile welfare vehicle?
There are more than 400 people depending on moving aids equipment. We are currently not only working on repairing moving aids equipment but also reconstituting donated devices so that we can lend or donate them to the people who need them. The service that we are providing can be a great joy for the physically challenged and seniors. I feel the sense of fulfillment after watching these people are genuinely satisfied with our service. We want to expand our services to non-handicapped seniors to provide convenience in mobility and happiness for the local seniors. I am very proud to play the part of instant repair service made possible by HMC’s donation of vehicles. With the belief that little things do have the power to change the world in to a better place, we will work tirelessly to lower the failure rate to zero.
Since 2010, Hoengseong county handicapped welfare center has been
visiting immobilized handicapped people who cannot visit welfare
facilities due to disabilities or geographical location to provide repair
moving aids equipment service. To minimize financial burden, the or-
ganization had been visiting registered handicapped and seniors over
65 and repair, maintain, lend, and provide safety education for moving
aids equipment (electric scooter and wheelchair).
In Hoengseong county, which ranked the highest out of 18 cities and
counties in elderly population ratio according to announcement of Sta-
tistics Korea in 2013, there are many seniors using moving aids equip-
ment in addition to the physically challenged population. Before the
visiting service was initiated to deal with their difficulties, it was costly
to have their equipment fixed because of hefty travel expenses and
service fee. The welfare center distributed leaflets and informed head
of village meetings to advertise its service. Soon many people started
filing civil request for the service and it became viral within the county.
Yet, it was difficult to cover the whole county with just one vehicle due
to limitations of time and distance. However, due to ’Moving The World
Together : Social welfare public proposal Project’ Hoenseong county
handicapped welfare center received mobile welfare vehicle(remodeled
Porter) and could respond more quickly to the community’s request.

What is the activity that you want to do most with the camping car?
I want to visit various locations since the camping car can move every-where. If camping cars are allowed into parks, I would like to stop by all the parks and host a mobilized counselling school that’s similar to the five-day market in Korea. Also, I want the counselling to be done in an environment close to nature rather than inside the boundaries of schools, because from my past experiences, having a day off from school and cooking, eating, and chatting in nature is much more effective than counselling in the city. We want to give wellness and composure from the nature to the children who need therapy, and heal them through interaction.
What kind of impact do you expect through the mobile welfare vehicle?
I want our ‘Street counselling’ camping car to inspire people to start more mobilized counselling centers. Currently, juvenile delinquencies are becom-ing a more serious problem everywhere, but there are very few places for youths to relieve their stress and rest. After I have started this business, the city of Seoul started an outreach program where they locate the youths who ran away from their homes and wander around the streets at an early stage to help them to go back to their family and avoid harmful environments. I hope this program can inspire other regions to pick up the idea of the ‘Street counselling’ centers that could function as rest areas for troubled teens. If it weren’t for Hyundai Motor Company (HMC), counselling in the camping car would have only been a one-time event that happened 3 years ago. I really
appreciate HMC’s open mind and embracement which made my dream of
‘Street Counselling’ come true.
Mini Interview
In 1994, Hanbit Youth Alternative Center started as a ‘Street Counsel-
ing’ effort. Now they have many projects including urbanized alternative
schools, like the School of Love and Seum School, and Hyu(Relax) cafe
for Youth. For 20 years, Yeonsu Choi, the chief of the center, counseled
teenagers who have trouble adjusting school’s education, and supported
relentless challenges and accomplishments by suggesting them to have
visions for their future. Recently, one of her dreams came true through
Hyundai Motor Company’s Moving The World Together : Social welfare
public proposal Project. Now the youth center can counsel other teenag-
ers on the streets thanks to camping car that was provided by Hyundai
Motor Company.
“I cannot forget the time when I visited my counselees with the camping
car three years ago. The children gathered around the camping car, and
were screaming and shouting out of pure excitement of being in the car.
I was able to easily communicate with the children with the help of the
camping car. The experience led me to think about having mobile coun-
seling center in a camping car. However, it was too difficult to get a spon-
sor because of hefty expenses. Then, I found out about a type of camping
car in the model of a truck, also known as truck camper. After discovering
this, I have carefully applied for mobile welfare vehicle support project
within Hyundai Motor Company’s Moving The World Together : Social
welfare public proposal Project with much enthusiasm.
Sung Chun Kim, the professor of Jung-Ang University, proudly recom-
mended Hanbit’s ‘Street Counselling’ program, because he appreciated
the Hanbit’s long history of counseling and their various activities that
led out local youth community. Therefore, Hanbit Youth Alternative
Center was chosen as a recipient of the project. Now, many employees
of Hanbit Youth Alternative Center have great expectations on the
camping car’s counselling service. The camping car, sponsored by HMC,
will provide more opportunities for youths to find out their dreams and
grow their hopes and have confidence for their future.

Recently, Corporations’ social contribution activities have grown beyond the CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) that focuses on responsibility, and developed into CSV (Creating Shared Value) activities, which provides shared values. So-cial contribution activities by Hyundai Motor Company (HMC), too, not only provides temporary dispensation or support but also aim for CSV, to share values and can be appreciated by the society as a whole. By taking advantage of auto man-ufacturer, HMC focuses on activities that can lead positive changes in societies, and make the better life for neglected people. HMC’s CSV activities such as safe traffic campaign, sponsorship for low-income families, and technique educa-tion for youth will lead the world in a sound and fresh direction.
CREATINGAND SHARINGTHE VALUESFOR A BETTER TOMORROW
story
08The school where auto mechanics’dreams come true
Hyundai Motor Company (HMC) has been engaging in a global CSV(Creating Shared Value)
project to solve the unbalanced education system in underdeveloped nations, to provide stable
job opportunities and contribute to the local economy. With international organizations who
specializes in such sectors, we have sought for a way to solve the social issues in the long-term
perspective, and decided to establish an educational facility for auto mechanic education.
Training outstanding auto mechanic engineers through education can lead to the improved com-
petency in start-ups and employment and increase the job opportunities in underdeveloped na-
tions and will contribute to local economy. At the same time, HMC is able to procure the talented
mechanic engineers and provide a better quality of auto mechanic services. We think this is the
true CSV project through which the local community and HMC can grow together.
Since the Hyundai-KOICA dream center is a joint global project based on a public-private partner-
ship, the systematic cooperation was required among the interest groups: our project partners,
KOICA(Korean International Cooperation Agency) and PlanKorea, local authorities, affiliated
organizations, education officials, local dealerships, and business partners alike. Fortunately,
every party agreed to the purpose and the goal of this project, and the project worked out
smoothly in close coordination.
After long preparation, Hyundai-KOICA dream center was opened in Ghana in 2013 and Indone-
sia in 2014. In addition, a new dream center establishment has started in Cambodia in 2014. To
provide professional auto mechanic education, each location has different curriculum adjusted to
the respective local situations in Ghana, Indonesia, and Cambodia. To encourage youths to real-
ize their dreams, HMC sponsors the initial costs for the construction, and supports the system of
operating the school from various aspects, such as training the teachers, developing curriculums,
and recruiting great employees

The 1st Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center
On January 29, 2013, after the one year construction, the first auto mechanic engineering school, Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center, was opened in Ghana, Africa. Based in Koforidua, located at two-hour drive distance from the capital Accra, the center is an officially approved high school based on a three year curriculum. The center has a three-story school building with classrooms, training rooms, computer labs, library, and a dormitory building that has restaurant and can accommodates more than 40 people. The school provides general classes that follows regular high school curriculums along with educational program focus-ing on theoretical and professional practices of automobile maintenance. Especially, the training program, which is based on the maintenance manual guidelines from Hyundai Motor Company(HCM) HQ, ensures efficient appliance in actual situations. HCM plans to enroll 100 new students for each grade, which is 300 students in total, and foster 100 auto mechanic engineer graduates annually starting from 2015.
Continuing from school and dormitory establishment, HCM actively supports the school’s operation by developing educational program, supplying training materials such as cars and transmissions, sending education experts, and training teachers. We also plan on providing jobs and internship opportunities to students at local HCM dealership stores and support students start-ing their own business. As the Dream Center provides quality education for auto mechanics, it will grow to be the best auto mechanic school not only in Ghana but in the whole African continent.
The 2nd Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center
In 2014 January 23rd, the second Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center opened at Jakarta Industrial Estate Pulogadung (JIEP). Opening after 9 months of reconstruction from April, 2013, Dream Center now takes up approximately 1,719 square meters and contains classroom, staff room, computer room, engine workshop, main workshop, painting shop, and etc. Technical training of auto mechanic is a 7-month-long short-term course accommodating 240 students with three different levels: elementary, intermedi-ate, and advanced. HCM is planning to support graduates by providing a microcredit program and offers internship as well as employment at local HCM dealership store.
The 3rd Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center
The third Hyundai-KOICA Dream center has borne its fruit in Cambodia. In 2014 April 29th, groundbreaking ceremony for the third Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center was held in the capital of Cambodia, Phnom Penh. After opening in 2015, it will have 5 short courses for 3 months (specialized in gasoline engine, diesel engine, powertrain, electricity, diagnosis and assistance) and 2 concentrated courses. Especially, it will provide quality education by integrating auto mechanic education curriculum taught in Korea. About 140 students will take maintenance education and students taking advanced courses will receive scholarships. For graduated students, HCM will help them to find jobs at maintenance centers through career searching program and will provide entrepreneurship mentoring program for those who are willing to start their own business. In addition, outstanding graduates will be given opportunities to work at HCM Automobile Center in Cambodia.

Music can be listened through the skin, not just ears. This is how
hearing-impaired people are listening the music. Based on the idea of
hearing-impaired people have a very sensitive senses, Hyundai Motor
Company (HMC) found the way to deliver sounds to the people who
are very far from being good listeners. It is ‘Sonata, The Brilliant Sound
Project,’ of 2013 that realized the concept. This is the very case proving
that we can make brighter world through converging technology with
the warm-hearted of care for our neighbors.
Namyang main R&D center of HMC and Sogang University’s gradu-
ate school of media have developed SONATA Touchable Music Seat.
Equipped with vibration sensor and speaker, the music seat was
designed to give a vital experience of rhythm and tune of music for
hearing-impaired people.
To give a musical experience to hearing-impaired children, HMC carried
out seat donating campaign through online: donating one seat per 1,000
participants. As a result, HMC was able attract 50,000 participants and
provide 5 music seats and multimedia room equipped with audiovisual
materials to 10 schools for deaf and hearing-impaired students in all
over the country. Through the collaboration with online music website
‘Soribada’, music contents were provided unlimitedly to increase its
usage. Also, HMC invited hearing-impaired people with 15 touchable
music seats and gave them an unforgettable memory of experiencing
music at concert for the first time of their life. To increase awareness
and continuous participation, we installed the music seats and booths
at several coffee shops in Seoul, and let them experience them.

Beyond the service and donation for promotional pur-poses, ‘Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center’ became the rep-resentative of the CSV activity to create common social values of corporate and society. At the core of KOICA Dream Center’s spirit, there are people who are striv-ing to find the insightful solution by thorough research of the local community to draw public interest, which is what Hyundai Motor Company can do best. This is an interview with manager Jaemin Shin about the true meaning and purpose of ‘KOICA Dream Center’ project.

Research on how to create social value by expanding the traditional role of corporation.
Talent donation, a new form of contribution that a uses individual talent to improve society rather than to achieve selfish benefit, is becoming a trend. To keep the pace with such trend, corporate attempts to lead their social contribution activity to social innovation activity, rather than just simply making donations. Also ‘Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center’ is leading the movement by using the prod-uct that Hyundai is best at, and creates economic benefits along with social values. We have met Jaemin Shin, Manager of Hyundai Motor Group’s social culture team, which has been making an outstanding result through research and effort.“Generally, corporates’ social contribution activi-ties in underdeveloped nations are medical and ed-ucation services. Such services are truly necessary for nations that have poor education and medical services. Even more, under the slogan of ‘Sharing of Hope,’ Hyundai Motor Company (HMC)thought that we need to proceed the business more ef-fectively with a precise direction as a pioneering corporation. We’ve been researching to find the method to creating social values with what HMC can do the best and, came up with ‘Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center’.”Until now, HMC has become one of the most beloved multinational corporations in the world, but it was told that there had been a relatively minor inconvenience on customer service on a relatively small market, compared to the vehicle’s quality. Shin notes that “there are many countries that were able to import cars but the level of governmental support and local technicians was low. I thought training auto mechanic engineers could increase job opportunities and that could lead to increment of satisfaction to our customer service. Eventually, it might expand our market.
As a result, it also had a synergy effect that HMC represents Korea.” It was expected to have difficulties because it was a big business and required cooperation with many other organizations. However, it was a smooth start. Manager Jaemin Shin said gratefully that “It was not so easy to proceed one project with many interest groups such as PlanKorea, PlanGhana, local dealership stores, organizations, and govern-ment. However, under the evident purpose of the project that we work for good cause, everyone fulfilled their own duty very well and it helped a lot to proceed the project successfully.”
Locally Optimized Support and Consistent Care
First established in Ghana, the construction of the second and third ‘Hyundai-KOICA Dream Centers’, each in Indonesia and Cambodia, was completed. All three schools’ curriculums are organized to fit the respective local situations. Section manager Jae-min Shin commented, “In the case of Ghana, national technical school does have a curriculum, but it is too focused on theories that there are difficulties in applying them to actual situations. In this context, HMC’s training curricu-lum for the mechanics was implemented with very positive local responses. They are even requesting for the permission to implement the curriculum on a national level. Indonesia has a relatively structured work force and infrastructure compared to other developing countries, so we implemented automobile education in their vocational school. Startup classes were also provided for those with experiences as mechanics, so they can start their own business. In the case of Cambodia, we are try-ing to take a more fundamental approach, focusing on the lower-income demographics who couldn’t afford education. Our six-month program covers basic vocational knowledge, like work ethics or
names of the equipment used at the workplace. The more advanced, two-year program focuses on employment, similar to our high technician classes in Indonesia. Because the program is employment-focused, some of the graduates are hired to local Hyundai dealerships.” He also noted the firm agen-da to ensure that “These efforts are not simply just one-time efforts to open schools; a great amount of responsibility and thought is put into every process, from educating instructors to organizing curriculums, to ensure that the locals can stand on their own feet with their own techniques.”.The ‘Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center’ business, in close coordination with our ‘Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers’, is received to the locals as a valuable CSR effort, displaying sincerity and ef-ficiency at the same time, by covering both mate-rial support and spiritual bonding. The ‘Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center’ is still searching for new grounds to create social value with the technol-ogy of HMC. We are looking forward to witness their next project.

Passion is a privilege and symbol of youth. Where is your passion? Sleeping in your heart in exchange for credits and better qualification? Meet these young group of people, who moves the world with their own unique passion, and em-braces the world with warm hearts. Unhindered by the sweltering heat and sandstorms, they are building houses and schools, painting murals and teaching children to bring changes to their neighbors, and building hope for the future of children. They realize that it is not giving, but sharing that really matters, and they attain the wisdom of co-existence. There is genuine passion in the hearts of the Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers, who, through sharing and volunteer-ing, keep the whole world going together.
Challenging a Bigger World with Youth
The hands that used to fiddle with smartphones were hammering
nails. The shoulders where backpacks used to be, were carrying bricks.
Showers are done with hot sweat, instead of cool water. Still, the chil-
dren’s smiles bring energy, and the wonderful changes that we build
bring smiles to our faces. Hard, but fun; uncomfortable, but enjoyable.
That was what sharing and volunteering was all about. The people who
would willingly devote the brightest passions of their youth for those
who are in need everywhere; introducing the Hyundai Motor Company
(HMC) Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers.
The Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers made their first step in 2008.
HMC established a team of Global Youth Volunteers composed of
university students, in part of ‘Happy Move’, which is one of their four
core CSR efforts. The chief objective is to foster global leaders, who,
through volunteering across borders, can lead the nation’s future and
promote the culture of Korea to the whole world. From its first class
founded in July 2008 to its twelfth class in January 2014, the Global
Youth Volunteers visited 28 areas in 18 countries, to do volunteer work
in diverse sectors ranging from local community, environment, medical,
education, and culture.

The Opportunity to Become a Global Youth Leader
Any university student over 18 with Korean nationality, whether you
are attending technical college or university, can apply for The Happy
Move Global Youth Volunteers even if you are under the leave of ab-
sence. Twice a year, 500 members are chosen through resumes and
interviews to go overseas volunteering during summer and winter
breaks. Those who are in financial difficulties, and therefore unlikely
to have experiences abroad, such as recipients of basic living, young
heads of households, families of motor accident victims, and North
Korean refugees are subjected to extra points in the selective process.
The competition is intense, as the number of applicants is increasing
to a whopping ten thousand for a single class. The selected students
go through a three-day orientation to learn about volunteer work, local
cultures, and fostering teamwork, and attain the necessary attitude
and heart of a volunteer.
“All the volunteer work with the light green vest in all the places in the world, was the chief motivation to become a global youth leader.”

The main works of the team can be categorized into local, environ-
mental, medical, and cultural volunteering. 440 houses, 34 public bath-
rooms, and 26 dumping grounds have been built, and beautiful murals
were painted on 1,184 walls in part of local volunteering. 250 elemen-
tary school classrooms were repaired, and 1,800 trees were planted on
the children’s playgrounds. The environmental work in Chekannoor, Nèi
M ngg Zìzhìq (Inner Mongolia) miraculously turned a desert area of
50 million square meters into green fields. Over 19,000 patients were
treated by professional doctors in the medical sector, and education
work was brought into areas where it lacked the basic facilities. There
was also time to share cultures with the local residents, through Tae-
kwondo, Talchum (Traditional Mask Dance), Samulnori (Traditional per-
cussion quartet), Nanta, and Traditional dance performances. Full-scale
cultural works started from 2013, also participating in the preservation

Making Changes in the Lives of our Global Neighbors
For more than five years, wonderful changes were made for many
people’s lives through volunteer works. Cherished homes were built
for families, and schools where dreams will grow were built for
children who want to learn. Public bathrooms and organized dumping
grounds were erected, and beautiful murals painted, and now the
village looks clean and bright. Barren desert changed to green grass-
land; trees were grown around desolate neighborhood. Patients were
treated to be cured from pains that they thought they had to endure
for the rest of their lives. People learned Korean-a country that they
weren’t even familiar with- songs, dances, and languages, and that
there are good people in the world. They obtained the warm power
to change their own lives. These are the beautiful changes that the
Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers created with their bare hands,
with their passionate sweat.
Youth Maturingthrough Sharing and Volunteering
The positive changes are not restricted to our neighbors. The university
students who participated in the volunteer work, sharing laughter,
tears, and sweat with others have grown too. By embodying the value
of sharing, they have a deeper insight towards life, and their perspec-
tives have changed through communicating with the locals. Also, work-
ing across the whole world, they developed a more global sense of the
world, and also attained vigorous spirits. They’ve grown to value coop-
eration over competition; passion over qualifications; and hearts over
knowledge. After the overseas volunteering, the members continued
their community activities and passionately participated in domestic
volunteer work as well. They are continuing various activities through
which they can take part in solving social issues, such as the ‘Design
Your Move’(a program where the participants design their own volun-
teer work plan) program, volunteer work for multi-cultural families and
immigrant workers, Hyundai Motor Company’s CSR works and affiliated
NGO works. The Global Youth Volunteers are growing beyond Korea’s
largest volunteer organization, into a group of global leaders of Korea.
“The dried up deserts turning into green fields; the new trees growing in the once-desolate villages: these are the beautiful changes that the Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers built through their hands and sweat.”

A place to meet the self, a time filled with dreams
The 500 members who were selected during the summer of 2013 as
the 11th Class of Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers flew to differ-
ent parts of the world to engage in their volunteer work. Especially, to
up the scales the culture exchange programs, an audition with profes-
sional judges was held to select 30 cultural specialists. The volunteer
work went underway in five areas in four countries, which were China,
India, Malaysia, and Indonesia.
‘Hyundai Greenzone China’ went underway in the Chakanor area at
Inner Mongolia autonomous region, China, to turn a lake which suf-
fered desertification into pasture. The miraculous transformation from
desert to pasture was reinforced by planting seepweeds, which are a
kind of halophytes, and installing tree branches in the sand to block out
the wind. In the slums of Yen cheng, Jiangsu, China, the ‘Kia Kawon’
house-building volunteer work went underway to provide warm homes
for the underprivileged.
In Chennai, India, the volunteers participated in the model village busi-
ness, improving village and school facilities, and also engaged in some
educational volunteering for the children. Educational volunteering and
remodeling the ‘Numbak Vision Centre’ for impoverished children living
in water houses in the Numbak area in Malaysia. In Banten, Indonesia,
the volunteers embarked on building homes and educational volunteer-
ing for the underprivileged locals. Various cultural exchanges were held
in each area, making it more meaningful and worthwhile.
Love learned through Hard Work, Hearts won through Bonding
The 500 members of the 12th class initiated in the winter of 2014 be-
tween January and February, with volunteer works in China, Indonesia,
India, and the Philippines. Like their predecessors from the 11th class,
their cultural exchange programs were improved through traditional cul-
ture and Korean wave specialists chosen through auditions.
In addition to continuing the work of the 11th class for the ‘Kia Kawon’
house building project, the team visited local schools in the slums of
Yen Cheng for educational volunteering and cultural performances.
Especially, for the first time, the volunteers visited Qufu, the hometown
of Confucius for cultural volunteering. They embarked on preservation
works for the burial ground of Confucius and other heritages in Qufu,
which is one of the World Heritage Sites. They also visited the local
middle school and hosted an educational program on heritages for the
students. Other various activities included joint cultural performances
with local residents.
In Indonesia, as a part of social contribution activity, Hyundai Motor
Company participated in the building and beautifying the ‘Hyundai-
KOICA Dream Center’ dormitory, in addition to renovating local elemen-
tary school classrooms and engaging in educational volunteering. In
the Philippines, homes were built and repaired for victims of natural
disasters in Manila. The team also spent some time with educational
and cultural programs. In India, ten town schools and centers were
renovated as part of the Model Village project in the Chennai area.
Local students were provided with art and physical education classes,
and also some time to share each other’s cultures.
“Communicating with the humble and pure local residents, and volunteering to help them taught us to value cooperation over competition, passions over qualifications, and hearts over knowledge”

stars while listening to music that we downloaded from Korea. It was very romantic, and it was something that the city doesn’t give you.
What is the biggest strength of Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers?
Park Jung-in I believe that HMC’s large national scale and wholehearted sponsorship are the team’s strongest points. It is not easy to practice volunteer work globally even with a willing attitude and spirit. Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers is backed up entirely from the early stages to the final, given the fact that the group beats all its odds. The infrastructure that supports the volunteers to meet their ends is the strongest point. Noh Hyun-chul Even more, I believe that beyond material support and short-lived events, the company’s willingness to constantly help the volunteers is the strongest point. Through 3-day orientations that nurture teamwork and strengthen the volunteers’ concentration, the group is able to work harder and better. Also, the fact that HMC provides the network for volunteers to further their work after their return through technical and local communities is a huge advantage.
How much does Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers mean to you?
Park Jung-in To me, the group means a new beginning. Through the volunteers, my interest in HMC grew and I realized the meaning and importance of du-rability when it comes to volunteer work. I believe that I was able to get a job at HMC because the interviewers
You’re from the ‘Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers’. Can you introduce yourself?
Park Jung-in I am in my fourth year as a hardwork-ing production manager in team 5 at Hyundai Motor Company (HMC)’s Ulsan plant, and I was one of the first members of the Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers program, which, at the time, was-and still is- every university students’ dream. The green vest of the Global Youth Volunteers was a huge source of pride for me as a university student, and I think it was this pride that mo-tivated me to go through the Internship at HMC to finally become a regular employee that I am now. Noh Hyun-chul I was also among the first members of the Global Youth Volunteers with Jung-in. I went through the same internship six months after Jung-in, and now I am in my third year as a manager at the Automotive Parts Buying team at HMC’s Headquarters. Ever since we became friends at Happy Move, Jung-in helped me a lot in the process of my employment.
Are there any episodes from the time that you would like to share?
Park Jung-in Because we were participating in an environmental volunteer work, there was limited amount of water we can use. A bucket of water for each person was available; the boys were able to wash themselves with it, but for girls, they could barely wash their faces. So all the girls just saved the water for 3~4 days to use it at once. There was also a time when we butchered a lamb and cooked it, just like the locals did. The girls weren’t able to handle it. There were other episodes too, because of all the cultural and situational differences. I can still vividly remember them with joy, even after years have passed.Noh Hyun-chul Yeah, but I remember it as an experi-ence giving a great analog-like emotions and memories, rather than feeling uncomfortable. There weren’t any electronic appliances there, so we would end the day together by lying on a blanket and looking at shooting

thought I showed appreciation towards HMC for giving me a chance to truly think about the meaning of life.Noh Hyun-chul I have a similar answer. I believe that my sincerity showed promise to the interviewers. My involvement in Happy Move Global Youth Volunteers greatly influenced my sincerity towards HMC. Therefore, the group not only brings me fond memories, but also serves as a great gift and compass in life.
Do you have anything to say to the Youth Volunteers?
Noh Hyun-chul I feel like there are many of those who try very hard to prepare for employment, not even exclusively to HMC. I believe that if one truly enjoys one’s work rather than focusing on the finishing line, one can learn and achieve greater things.Park Jung-in I was very fortunate to meet all dif-ferent types of people around the world while I was in the first volunteer group. It gave me a sense of direction of who I wanted to become and achieve. It is not com-mon to experience these opportunities at a young age. One would truly appreciate the group’s lively energy and warmth if one would be part of it.

CARRYING HOPE FOR LIFE ON FOUR WHEELS
story
10
There is lifesaving hope in every Hyundai automobile in the vast land that is America. Hope on Wheels is a social contributing program that supports the research and cure for child cancer. Hope on Wheels was able to be active for sixteen years because people sympathized and supported the program’s sincerity. Starting with American sale corpo-ration dealers, the program was able to be active for patients, researchers, and hospitals as more and more citizens began to participate. Even to this day, Hyundai Motor America goes on to spread hope to the world.
The Start of a Lifesaving Miracle
The number of child cancer patients is growing globally, and in
America, thousands of children are diagnosed with cancer every year.
Not only is the process of treatment for these child patients are painful
and costly, the child patient and his family go through much emotional
and financial hardship. Luckily, most of the child cancer patients can
be treated in the early stages. However, due to budgetary reasons, the
US federal government’s support is not nearly enough. Hyundai Motor
America(HMA) detected this situation and as a mean to give back to
the community, the company started creating lifesaving miracles.
In 1998, HMA dealers in New England area donated to Boston’s Dana-
Farber Cancer Institute, initiating the 'Hope on Wheels project'. This
wonderful idea to help children who are diagnosed with cancer spread
to dealers across America. The revenue needed to support the program
was backed up by 800 national dealers who donated 14 dollars each
automobile they sold, along with HMA and staff members. Citizens
were able to donate through websites such as www.HyundaiHopeon-
wheels.org. Hope on Wheel’s sum of donation from 1998 to 2013 to
cancer researchers and institutions accumulates to 72 million dollars.
The Special Idea to Fight Child Cancer
Hope on Wheels consists of support for child cancer research and cure,
encouragement to those who are diagnosed, and awareness of the
disease through online and offline promotions. Some notable activities
include the 'Hope on Wheels Promotion' Tour which delivers donations
and encouragement for the patients in America, ‘Hyundai Scholar
Grant’ and ‘Hyundai Hope Grant’ that support research money, the ‘Child
Cancer Awareness Month’ festival, numerous websites and campaigns.
Hope on Wheels main logo is handmarks in various shapes and col-
ors. The handmarks are those of child cancer patients and those who
fought through, giving the message of hope and endurance. The color-
ful handmarks not only caught the attention of automobiles that toured
the nation, but also spread the message of hope in various festivals
and social media.

Hope on Wheels, 16 Years and Still Going
In 2013, Hope on Wheels opened full-scale campaigns for its 16th
year anniversary. The 2013 program began with the Hope on Wheels
honorary ambassador CJ George ringing the closing bell of New York
NASDAQ stock market. On the 28th, New York’s Jacob Javits Conven-
tion Center hosted official opening of the ‘2014 New York Motor Show’
and New York City officially declared this day as ‘Hyundai Motor Hope
on Wheels Day.’ Many citizens showed interest and sympathy as the
‘Give Hope a Hand’ campaign spread the purpose of the event through
videos on New York Times Square displays and various social media.
One of Hope on Wheel’s prominent activities is the ‘Hyundai Scholar
Grant,’ which gives scholarships to outstanding researchers in child
cancer research. After each dealer decides on a candidate nationally,
Children’s Oncology Group assesses the candidates and picks those
who show promise. HMA gave 42 researchers 75 thousand dollars
each (3.15 million dollars in total) of research scholarships through
Hope on Wheels from March to August, 2013.
A Wonderful September Journey with Citizens
Every September is the ‘Child Cancer Awareness Month’ in America.
Hyundai Motor America(HMA) opens various festivals during Septem-
ber to attract citizens to raise awareness and support for the issue of
child cancer. In 2013, Hyundai’s ‘Hope Grant Contest,’ a tour to deliver
donations, a 5km marathon, joint events with the Child Cancer Caucus,
numerous online campaigns through websites and social media plat-
forms went underway.
In 2013, ‘Hyundai Hope Grant Contest’ successfully took place spon-
soring research money for national children’s hospitals that participate
in child cancer cure programs. Through much evaluation of the hospi-
tals that applied, 41 were selected. On September, Hope of Wheels
donated 250 thousand dollars to each hospital, leading to a sum of
12.05 million dollars.
The ‘Hope on Wheels 5km Marathon’ also celebrated its third year as
the event attracted tens of thousands of participants in 12 cities around
the nation. To spread awareness of child cancer and gather donations,
the festival hosted various events such as the Handprint Wall. The
sum of money from the marathon was entirely used for child cancer
research and cure programs.
In 2013, in order to spread the awareness of child cancer, campaigns
actively used social media as their medium. Hope on Wheels was able
to attract much attention by posting child cancer patients’ stories, ‘Ev-
ery Handprint Tells a Story,’ on HMA’s Facebook page. Much support
was shown as the Facebook campaign had over 5,000 replies and 120
million online handprints. On YouTube, the campaign put up stories of
children who beat cancer along with other social media publications.

Continuing from 2012, NBC talk show, ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’
sponsored Hope on Wheels in 2013. Through the broadcasting, the
program was able to not only show what benefits it gave to child
cancer research but also introduced people’s social media replies and
gave away free cars.
HMA participated in the U.S. Congress’ annual festival to fight child
cancer. This festival encourages the idea of fighting cancer with the
help of Child Cancer Caucus, a group of Congress representatives who
are concerned about the issue. As the first private corporation to be in-
volved, HMC was recognized as the leader in fighting child cancer and
has participated three years in a row since 2011. In the 2013 festival,
along with the Korean ambassadors in the U.S and HMA, child cancer
medical teams, patients and their families participated to share case
studies and the necessity for early detection in child cancer, and to
discuss legislations relevant to the means to support this direction.
Sponsorship through Hyundai Cancer Research Center
HMA established the ‘Hyundai Cancer Institute’ in Children’s Hospital
in Orange County (CHOC). From 2011, the sum of 10 million dollar
donation from Hope on Wheels helped establish the child cancer
research center to study and develop innovative treatment for child
cancer. The opening ceremony that was held on July 2013 hosted
HMA dealers, hospital workers, child cancer patients and their
families. The event included the child patients handprinting the wall.
HMA donated two Santa Fe vehicles for the child patients in CHOC.
In conjunction, Hyundai Bio-repository was established to carry out
nationwide research on tumor by supporting Children’s Oncology
Group with 2 million dollars.
Hope on Wheels, Toward the Future
For sixteen years, Hope on Wheels brought significant changes to the
American society. Through this program, child cancer patients and
their families were able to dream new lives; researchers, doctors, and
hospitals were greatly supported in terms of research and treatment.
Even more, citizens were able to be more aware and show support
towards child cancer and ways to fight it. This was achieved not only
with the support of HMA American sale corporation and dealers around
the nation, but also the customers who purchased the automobile,
citizens who participated on various festivals, and the Internet
populations who showed sympathy through social media replies and
posts. HMA will further on develop Hope on Wheels to give much hope
and change for the future.

deliver the donation money. To raise awareness of the illness, I had to open various media events each time I visited a children hospital. Especially for the five cities of San Francisco, Austin, Chicago, Washington DC, NYC, I invited public media figures and leading figures in new energy to the events. It was an event to introduce Hope on Wheel’s activity and promotion along with HMA’s hydro fuel cell technology. While touring, I was met with much support from child cancer patients, their families, customers, and citizens.
While promoting the awareness of child cancer, how did the citizens participate?
Hope on Wheels mainly did promotions through online and social media. Hope on Wheels has a tour that deliv-ers donations and hosts 80 Handprinting festivals. About 100 festivals take place each year and these events at-tract much media and advertises our message well. With the help of active promotions, citizens have showed much attention and interest in the program. For our ‘Child Cancer Awareness Month’ campaign of September 2013, more than 60,000 citizens participated in our ‘5km marathon’. Our donation money through the internet is increasing each year. Each social media community’s activity is also very promising. In June 2014, 15,000 newsletter readers, 43,000 Facebook followers, and 3,000 Twitter followers have supported us.
Hope on Wheels is a social contribut-ing group that is recognized around the world. What are the main achievements of the group?
Hope on Wheels’ dedication on saving lives and its con-stant, sincere contributions to child cancer research has been widely recognized, earning multiple awards from various institutions. In 2013, the U.S assembly opened a yearly festival to fight child cancer and as a sign of grat-itude for Hope on Wheels, the American flag that was in the assembly hall was given along with the global re-
gional social contribution award from the Ajamu group. With these at hand, HMA’s image has improved among consumers, resulting in a 93.7% preference level for the brand in September’s 2013 poll.
It’s been 16 years since the beginning of Hope on Wheels. What are its goals and philosophy?
Hope on Wheels program was designed to solve many important problems that American children go through. Every 36 minutes, a child is diagnosed as a cancer pa-tient, and child cancer has the leading death rate among children’s diseases. Hope on wheels is one of the biggest nonprofit organizations to support child cancer research in America. The main goal is to save lives by spreading awareness of the illness and financially supporting those who research for better treatment. Our philosophy is to make a world where no children dies of cancer. The sur-vival rate of child cancer patients, which was nearly 0% in the 1960’s, has increased to about 80%. Our goal is to raise the survival rate through supporting technological progress and research development.
Hope on Wheel’s monetary support is composed of donations from the com-pany and dealers. How is it managed?
Hope on Wheel’s monetary support is composed of deal-ers’ saved up donations per sold car alongside with the donation gathered by Hyundai Motor America(HMA)’s American sale corporation. 4% of the whole donation is from citizens. The board of directors composed of execu-tives and dealers from the American sales corporation manage the program’s budget and donations are given by panels of doctors.
Is there a specific incident that you remember the most from Hope on Wheels?
The 2011 Hope on Wheels tour left a strong impression on me. I was a member of a four-man group that wanted to raise awareness of child cancer around America. We toured across America on Hyundai’s Hydro Fuel Cell model of the Tuscan FCEV. This tour lasted 28 days and we traveled almost 7,564km. For that period of time, I drove the vehicle to children hospitals every day to

OPENING UP A BRILLIANT FUTURE FOR EUROPEAN YOUTHS
As European economic depression continues, youth unemployment rate has gone above 25% in some of countries. Hyundai Motor Europe GmbH (HME) proposes to address this challenge by improving the STEM-skills of European youth. Implemented across Europe, the Skills for the Future-project aims to bridge the gap between business and education. This is achieved through close cooperation between selected vocational schools and industry specialists from Hyundai. In this way HME contributes to increasing the chances of European youth to finding employment in the difficult economic context.
Nurturing Young Talents Nurturing Young European Talents
Today, countries in Europe experience difficulty with the protracted
depression and high youth unemployment rate. Thus, many young
Europeans feel anxious about their uncertain future. Actively involved
in Europe with its business operations, Hyundai Motor Europe GmbH
(HME) has created a pan-European CSR-project in order to help Europe
overcome the skills-gap and improve the employment situation of the
young.. That's Skills for the Future, a project that has been deployed
since 2012 in European countries with HME as its bellwether.
Skills for the Future is a training program that has been provided for
three years since 2012 for total 10,000 persons from 400 schools in
15 countries. It aims to improve the employability of young people
by providing technical skills and entrepreneurship courses as well as
mentoring of a mini-company for 15-18 year-old students of vocational
schools across Europe. HME ultimately aims to contribute to the
growth of the European economy including auto industry by cutting
youth unemployment and fostering excellent technical workforce
through a hands-on education that would bridge the technology gap
between schools and employers.

Master Class refers to the workshop that is provided twice a year for teachers and volunteers from HME who participate in the training. Through a careful review and active discussion of past achievements from the training, teachers and volunteers come up with novel and innovative proposals for improvement that could bridge any gaps between schools and actual worksites.
Skills for the Future Hyundai Award is a competition in which mini companies cre-ated by students from different countries participate. Mini companies must pass nationwide competition in each country to move on to the European finals. The most recent edition of the Hyundai Skills for the Future Award was held in Frankfurt on May 26th-28th, 2014.
Online class as the preliminary course for the curriculum is provided in the quiz format on the website for Skills for the Future (www.skillsforthefuture.eu). To get qualified, students must pass a quiz which tests their basic knowledge on auto industry. Minimum required score for qualification is 80, and the test can be repeat-edly taken until a student qualifies. The quiz is provided in English, Italian, Spanish, German and Czech Republic language.
For training in school, employees volunteer from different divisions of Hyundai Mo-tor Europe GmbH(HME). The volunteers visit schools to provide classes in technol-ogy, general affairs, and various cases in auto industry, and support counseling on schoolwork and careers through talks with students. Through the class and talks, students can learn quite a lot about technological trends in auto industry and skills required for actual operation.
Technical Skills and Entrepreneurship Courses let students create and operate their own company for mock practice in business management. Students learn from the volunteers and the teachers not only basic knowledge in market economy and busi-ness, entrepreneurship and interpersonal skills, leadership, but also various abilities needed in actual operation and technology in STEM (science, technology, engineer-ing, and math), before they create and run a mini company that produces products and services related to auto industry. Those mini companies receive various sup-ports and guidance from the HME mentors.
Systematic Training Designed to Strengthen Job-Oriented Competitiveness
The curriculum for Skills for the Future includes online quiz, classroom visit, course in technical skills and entrepreneurship, master class for volun-
teers and teachers, and Hyundai Award as a mini competition. Yearly training is split in two semesters.

Positive contribution to the European societies the European Societies
Through the project that ran through the first half of 2014, not only the
students and faculty in the vocational schools in different countries
but also Hyundai Motor Europe GmbH(HME) and JA-YE Europe were
able to grow together while experiencing positive changes. By devel-
oping the skills necessary for employment through class-room activi-
ties, mentoring by business-volunteers, and running their own mini-
company, students acquired both competence and confidence. Schools
and teachers were able to broaden the horizon of the vocational edu-
cation through their participation in bridging the gap between school
education and industrial application. By successfully implementing the
project that continues through 2015, HME continues to positively con-
tribute to European societies.

Skills for the Future is now leading Hyundai's social contribution activi-ties in Europe. What is the biggest strength of Skills for the Future?
Skills for the Future is Hyundai pan-European CSR program. By operating in Europe for many years we wanted to give something back to Europe by becoming a responsible European corporate citizen. Today Europe is facing critical difficulties with un-employment specifically with the young generation who have an unemployment rate of more than 25%. The automotive industry is permanently looking for skilled automotive professional which difficult to find due to missing skills and competencies. With more than 10,000 highly skilled Hyundai employees we believe that we can help with bridging the skills gap between business and education. In that context I believe that the biggest strength of Skills for the Future is the strong engagement of the Hyundai volunteers. The Hyundai volunteers are sharing their passions, expertise and knowledge with the students through various activities. It is the most important factor in sustaining the program and its impact in the future.
We have heard that despite its implementation for a short period of time, the project has had huge impact. We are curious how people have reacted to it in Europe.
Since the program has been launched in April 2012, it is getting more and more visible. Firstly more than 3,000 students took part at least in one of the Skills for the Future activities this aca-demic year. This is a three-time increase compared to the results of last academic year. They worked with over 120 Hyundai volunteers on 110 class room visits, 63 mini companies, 30 competitions and 36 teacher master classes.* The Students and Teachers are very happy with their experience with Hyundai,
and they all expect to their school will continue to be part of these program for the next years. Secondly, over the past 2 years we have invited representatives of media, officials from the European Commission, members of European Parliament as well as the national parliaments and governments’ officials to attend our national and local Skills for the Future initiatives. In April 2013, Hyundai organized a Skills for the Future panel discussion in the European Parliament with high-level speakers and involvement of the teachers and students. In addition, in 2013 the project was showcased within ACEA (European automobile manufacturers’ association) as well as at events and meetings in Brussels (Jumping the Skills Gap Symposium organized by European Roundtable of Industrialists, Leaders for a Day organized by JA-YE Europe) where we have explained our commit-ment to this program. The European Policy Makers start recognizing Skills for the Future as a best practice program on how business and education should work together to find solution for bridging the skills gaps in Europe. The Skills for the Future-project has moved Hyundai towards a corporate social citizenship-status in Europe.Last but not least all the 120 Hyundai volunteers are proud of this program, and they all have recognized how powerful it is for developing the skills of the young generation, but also for their personal devel-opment. They all reported how refreshing the experi-ence with the students is, how much they learnt from students who shared their, enthusiasm for learning, outside-the-box thinking and willingness to make things that appears impossible at first glance pos-sible. They all got inspired by this experience.
Tell us about students or share with us episodes you particularly remem-ber.
During the school year I hear a lot of stories from our volunteers who share how refreshing and en-
“The Hyundai volunteers are
sharing their passions, expertise and
knowledge withthe students through various activities. It is
the mostimportant factor in
sustaining the program and
its impact in the future.”
riching working with students can be. In end of May Hyundai Motor Europe GmbH’s Headquarters near Frankfurt hosted 70 students together with their teachers and Hyundai mentors representing the best mini companies from across Europe. I was really im-pressed by the enthusiasm and the mature approach of all students who confidently presented their products and services. The mini company Cross from Slovakia impressed me with the great teamwork that they presented. As the Jury was interviewing them and asking them difficult questions they were really supportive to each other and appeared as one unified professional team, at just 15 years old the team showed a level of collaboration maturity that I would envy sometimes to see in our organization. Knowing how important the team is, I was not sur-prised that they won the Hyundai Award. One of the students from Slovakia (Marek Kaminicky ) shared with me: We are really proud to have won the first place since we felt we had a good presentation, we were confident and above all we had an innovative product. I also would like to thank Hyundai that had stood behind us and pushed us to bring our product to the next level!
What plan and vision do you have for the skill for the future?
On a longer term we will assess a timeline to roll-it out to all the 30 European countries under the authority of HME, and to start cascading it to our Dealer network. Communicating with the students and Hyundai volunteers who participated in the Skills for the Future program in the last two academic years gives me optimism that the program is bringing positive change in their lives. We will be working on further improving the visibility of the project in European media as well as giving more flexible op-portunities for employees to join.

CREATINGA NEW POSSIBILITY IN THE MIDDLE-EAST AND AFRICA
Education : The Power to Open a Brighter Tomorrow
Hyundai is deeply interested in improving education quality for the Middle East and Africa. Education plays a crucial role over individuals and nations,
however, many places in the region lacks infrastructure and has poor environment of education. By supporting education to the underprivileged class,
we have been restlessly trying to contribute to long-term development of the community. We have donated desks, chairs, books and educational ma-
terials to slums in the region and founded professional organizations such as official automobile technical high school ‘Hyundai-KOICA Dream Center’
in Ghana to promote job training which will have positive impact to the community in return.
Since 2012 we have been supporting business contest for middle school students in West Bank called ‘INJAZ Palestine’, which is one of many efforts
by Hyundai. Students go through series of professional business education, establish their own company, and then are assessed to select one contes-
tant with biggest management outcome. Hyundai has not only been providing training sessions and funding but also successfully promoted the event
through websites, SNS and advertisement
A book can change one’s path. A mosquito net will prevent fatal diseases. A treatment will save a life. Hyundai is a firm believer of small but big miracles. Hoping a small transition today will be a big leap tomorrow, we have been contribut-ing to various places in Africa and Middle East on myriads of sectors including education and medical welfare. We have been closely working with local NGOs to provide education opportunity and medical treatment for the underprivileged children, teenagers and women. With the Middle Eastern and African neighbors, Hyundai will create another possibility.

Hyundai has been donating automobiles to South African Education
facilities for professional technical training. In 2013, we have donated
compact cars to Primrose high school in Germinston, West Ridge
high school in Durban and SUVs to Saint Anthony Education Center in
Wolfsburg. So far, we have donated 25 vehicles solely for educational
purpose. Also, in 2013 we have built a library for high school students.
In collaboration with ‘Imperial Ukhamba Community Development Trust’,
our library was founded providing over 4,500 books, desks and chairs,
audiovisual equipment and computers to South View high school in Le-
nasia South. We hope the library to encourage willingness to study for
students and decrease illiteracy rate for the local community.
Hyundai and Mozambique government have been working together
to offer education program to underprivileged teenagers with high il-
literacy rate. For 3 months, starting from March, 2013, we have given
various lectures to 500 illiterate teenage girls, in the hope to root out
illiteracy and encourage them to live life fully. Also to improve environ-
ment of education we have delivered desks and chairs, black boards,
sports equipment and other various educational materials to a newly
founded school in Angola. In Morocco, we built a preschool to educate
the underprivileged children. Completed in 2013, desks and chairs,
blackboards, computers and other educational materials have been
placed by Hyundai. More than 150 children have gained the opportunity
to experience the joy of learning due to our contribution.

Medical Welfare :Sharing for healthy life
Great numbers of underprivileged people living in African developing countries cannot expect
quality medical treatment due to lack of medical facilities. Hyundai has been working to tackle
the problems associated with medical and health environment of underprivileged class through-
out various countries in Africa.
We have sponsored Eerste River Hospital in Western Cape, Republic of South Africa. Surgical equipment was provided by Hyundai, paving way for quality medical services. In Sudan, we have donated ultrasonic devices to the hospital that are having difficulties examining pregnant women due to lack of diagnostic equipment. We have supported one ultra-sonic device to Omdurman hospital in Khartoum in the capital and El Obeid hospital in Kordofan in the northern region each to increase the accuracy of pregnancy examination for local women.
We are hosting annual malaria eradication campaign in Nigeria. Since 2010, we have taught precautionary mea-sures for malaria, fumigated the region, and provided mosquito larva insecticide, mosquito incense and mosquito nets to education facilities and child care centers in underdeveloped areas. Also on March 2014, we have carried out malaria eradication campaigns in child care centers and nursing homes located in Lagos, Oyo, Kwara, Edo, Delta, Akwa Ibom and Ogun.
We have donated 10 customized mobile clinic vehicles to 4 countries: Ethiopia, Nigeria, Ghana, and Rwanda. Hyundai which has been carrying out mobile clinic projects to enable medical diagnosis in remote areas in Africa since 2009, is hoping to improve African health environment through donation of diagnosis vehicles
We sponsored ‘Kidzcan Zimbabwe’, a local NGO supporting childhood cancer patients. Kidzcan is a group that gives helping hands to the unfortunate children suffering from cancer and has supported 443 child patients in 2013. Hyundai has donated automobiles and held various fund-raising campaigns in car exhibitions, websites, SNS, magazines, and 5km marathon competition.

Managing Traffic Volunteer Service Team and Driving Schools
To contribute to traffic safety, HMIF has been running ‘Hyundai traffic
volunteer service team’ program since 2008. Cities like New Delhi,
Chennai, and Kolkatta, where overcrowded traffic never seems to be
resolved, we select 280 college students as volunteer work participants
to cooperate with local police officers for traffic regulation at night.
Each volunteer is supported with 2,000 rupees as expenses for their
work, attires and equipment, and traffic insurance fees. The program
not only helps organize the local traffic, but also supports a more stable
life for college students.
In addition to this, as traffic safety comes from safe driving, we have
also been running ‘Hyundai driving school’. Located inside Chennai fac-
tory, the driving school provides 2 months of training and free uniforms
and meals to unemployed youths. After the training, they are given
driver’s licenses from the local traffic authorities. So far, we have had
over 520 graduates most of whom successfully found jobs afterwards.
In 2013, ‘Hyundai driving class program’ was initiated for local citizens
to provide free driving lessons. Our effort not only helps strengthen
traffic safety but also promotes employment in India.
Construction of Model Village to Improve Quality of Living
Hyundai Motor India Foundation(HMIF) is working tirelessly to help un-
derprivileged people to gain long-term economic independence through
various activities. Model Village project is one of the initiatives.
Started in 2011, the 4-year project aims to improve living condition of
8 villages located near Chennai factory. We have renewed schools and
constructed various facilities as washrooms, sewage purification facili-
ties, street lights and playgrounds for children. Also we have distrib-
uted trash cans from places to places and donated tractors to collect
wastes. Furthermore, we have constructed a library and filled it with
books, hosted a public health awareness camps, and created vegetable
gardens in schools and residential areas. Now cleaner and more com-
fortable villages are bringing up hopes and energy to the residents.

Education is one of HMIF’s many passions. Education is the key to a
better future, and creates opportunity for the society to nurture future
leaders. We have been donating desks and chairs to public schools of
Kanchipuram region for the betterment of education environment since
2007. All of our donated desks and chairs are made of environmentally
friendly materials that are utilized from waste woods. Up until 2013,
we have donated 28,750 sets of desks and chairs for 87,600 children
to use. Furthermore, we run a one-year-program for underprivileged
women from Kanpuchiram and Tirubala to provide nursing education,
food and shelter. Over 210 women became certified nurses and found
jobs. We are planning another project with the community’s NGOs that
will provide computer education to 480 local girls annually. In addition,
we are donating used vehicles and engines

Customer invitation to large scale Before Service Event together with Beautiful MarketIn 2013, Hyundai Motor Company invited customers to a large scale Before Service event hosted in collaboration with the charity organization ‘Beautiful Market’. Taking places in 7 locations across the country, the event provided opportuni-ties for our customers to donate second-hand clothes, books, accessories and etc, and the profit from selling the donation was used entirely on helping the underprivileged. Hyundai Motor Company was able to promote corporate image through the event.
Delivering Greater Customer Satisfaction through visiting Before ServiceOur first-in-the-industry, free-of-charge home visiting mainte-nance policy, the ‘Before Service’ ensures safer driving expe-rience to more than four million customers around the world. Every holiday season, Hyundai Motor Company supported the convenience and safety of our customers by setting up temporary service corner in highway rests nationwide and by strengthening emergency service. We are always putting our customers first through our special maintenance services extending to our handicapped customers, isolated areas, and hazardous climates.
Hyundai Motor Company provide vehiclesfor welfare organizationHyundai Motor Company Ulsan Plant delivered thirteen vehicles including seven Grand Starex (12-person), one Grand Starex Easy-move, and five Avante Hybrid models to thirteen local welfare organizations working for children and teenagers, elders, and handicapped people.

Campaigns for Promotion to Use Traditional MarketsHyundai Motor Company Ulsan Plant has provided bonus allowances to its workers with vouchers for traditional markets since Chuseok in 2011, vitalizing local marketplaces and contributing to the local economy. Also, representatives of labor union and management visit and promote the local traditional markets during holiday seasons and buy fruits and groceries with the coupons, encouraging the employees to use the market and support the local community by not only giving the voucher to the employees, but using the traditional market voucher to double the contribution.
Sharing Love through Backpack of LoveHyundai Motor Company Jeonjoo Plant hosted the ‘Backpacks of Love’ event, through supporting the students from lower-income households in Jeonjoo and Wanjoo area. The back-packs were filled with kids’ favorite school supplies including 3 types of products from ‘N’ brand and were handed to the children. Through this, we were able to restore the joy and confidence of children who were discouraged by not having a proper backpack and school supplies.
