Kumho Tire USA, Georgia Department of Veterans Service, and Georgia Veterans Service Foundation Announce Formal Partnership to Support Georgia's Veterans

May 23, 2026

Kumho Tire USA, Inc. (KUSA) and the Georgia Veterans Service Foundation (GVSF) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to establish a long-term partnership aimed at serving Georgia's approximately 680,000 veterans and their families. This collaboration involves contributions from private industry, state government, and nonprofit organizations.

The partnership reflects a mutual commitment to providing sustained support for veterans. KUSA and GVSF intend to identify and implement programs that will have a meaningful impact on the veteran community in Georgia, with specific initiatives to be announced in the future.

The collaboration was highlighted earlier this year when GVSF representatives were recognized as Co-Captains during Kumho Tire Night at State Farm Arena, coinciding with the Atlanta Hawks vs. Boston Celtics game. This event underscored the spirit of recognition and respect that characterizes the partnership.

Edmund Cho, CEO of Kumho Tire USA, stated, "At Kumho Tire USA, we believe that doing business in America means giving back to America. We are honored to stand alongside the GVSF in this commitment, and we look forward to building something lasting together for Georgia's veterans." Dr. Patricia Ross, Commissioner of the Georgia Department of Veterans Service, added, "Partnerships like this one are exactly how we deliver on that promise." Joe Higgins, Board Chair of the GVSF, remarked, "The Georgia Veterans Service Foundation exists to connect Georgia's veteran community with the resources and support they deserve."

Kumho Tire USA, headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, is a subsidiary of Kumho Tire Co., Ltd., a global tire manufacturer based in Seoul, South Korea. The GVSF is a federal 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that works to support the Georgia Department of Veterans Service by forming community partnerships to address the needs of Georgia's veterans.
