Home&Shopping Donates 50 Million KRW to Support COVID-19 Vulnerable Groups

Support for Improving Housing Conditions for Low-Income Persons with Severe Disabilities

Home&Shopping is delivering a support fund for improving the housing environment for people with disabilities to the Korea Disabled Foundation.

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] Home&Shopping (CEO Kim Ok-chan) announced on the 5th that it will carry out social contribution activities for low-income people with severe disabilities who are particularly vulnerable to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

For low-income people with severe disabilities, the time spent at home has increased due to COVID-19, making the comfort and sanitation of mattresses, bathrooms, etc., inevitably important. Home&Shopping has decided to support the Korea Disabled Foundation with 'Smile Home Cleaning' worth 50 million KRW for these low-income people with severe disabilities. This is a comprehensive support service that provides disinfection services and activity assistance for families with disabilities who frequently receive visitors.

Through this, comprehensive support services worth 50 million KRW, including mattress cleaning, bathroom cleaning, disinfection and sterilization, hand sanitizer, and home decoration (DIY) kits, will be provided, expecting that people with severe disabilities can live comfortably and pleasantly at home. A Home&Shopping official said, "We are trying to pay more attention to socially vulnerable groups who are particularly affected by COVID-19," and "we plan to continue to carry out various untact social contribution programs where help is needed."
