Lotte Chilsung Charlotte Volunteer Group Donates 'Tactile Books' and 'Eco-friendly Soap' for Children's Day

Lotte Chilsung Charlotte Volunteer Group completed tactile books and eco-friendly soap.

[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Saeng-hye] Lotte Chilsung’s ‘Sharodde Volunteer Group’ announced on the 4th that they will donate ‘tactile books’ and ‘eco-friendly soap’ made directly by employees in celebration of Children’s Day on the 5th.

The ‘braille tactile books’ are designed to help visually impaired children perform physical activities on their own, such as tying shoelaces and buttoning buttons. In particular, the braille tactile books were created in collaboration with Damsimpo, a preliminary social enterprise supporting work-life balance for career-interrupted women, with whom they also worked together in February.

The Sharodde Volunteer Group also conducted eco-friendly soap making to encourage children’s handwashing habits, especially as personal hygiene has become important due to COVID-19. These soaps are characterized by including endangered animal figures and Lego toys to attract children’s interest.

A Lotte Chilsung official said, “We hope that the braille books and eco-friendly soaps, filled with the hearts of our employees, will be delivered well to places in need.” He added, “Since group volunteer activities held monthly have become impossible due to COVID-19, it seems more meaningful that employees participated in making these items at home with their families through untact volunteer activities.”

The books and soaps voluntarily made by employees will be delivered to braille libraries, schools for the blind, and the international relief NGO World Share.
