Samsung hosts 8th Annual Veterans Day Luncheon

700 meals were provided to veterans

On Saturday, November 9, Samsung Electronics Home Appliances America (SEHA) hosted its Eighth Annual Veterans Day Luncheon in Newberry, continuing its commitment to recognize and honor local veterans’ service.

After saluting veterans at the Newberry’s Veterans Day Parade, SEHA held a drive-thru luncheon event at the local Veterans’ Affairs Office, providing 700 meals to veteran families who attended the event. In addition to the drive-thru, there was outdoor seating for veterans and families who wished to enjoy their meal on-site and listen to live music.

In attendance was Senator Ronnie Cromer of the 18th District, Sherriff Foster of Newberry County and a representative from United State Senator Tim Scott. Employees from Samsung were also on site to serve the veterans and their families.

“Veterans hold a special place in our community, company, and hearts,” said Thomas Komaromi, General Counsel at Samsung Electronic Home Appliances America. “Our commitment to and appreciation for those who gave so much has only grown over the years. We look forward to continuing our efforts and showing the local community how important they are to the success at Samsung.”

Since they arrived in 2017, Samsung has committed to enhancing the lives, experiences, and opportunities of the military communities in Newberry, working closely with organizations like the American Legion and the Freedom and Hope Foundation.

“We are so grateful for Samsung and the commitment they’ve made to veterans across the Newberry community,” said Raleigh Hickman, Director of Veteran Affairs in Newberry County. “This annual event is a highlight of our veteran’s celebration. We look forward to it every year.”
