[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Hye-seon] CJ ENM O Shopping Division announced on the 3rd that it conducted a kimchi-making and handwritten letter sharing activity together with Bangbae Senior Welfare Center and CJ Nanum Foundation on the 2nd. A total of 2,000 kg of kimchi and handwritten letters written by employees were delivered to 200 households of elderly living alone in the Bangbae-dong area.


This year, finished kimchi products worth 14 million KRW were donated to the welfare center in collaboration with CJ Nanum Foundation. This is because the annual kimchi-making volunteer activity, which has been carried out for over 10 years with the participation of about 100 employees, could not be held this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead, about 200 employees of the O Shopping Division listened to the current status of elderly living alone and wrote 200 handwritten letters. The letters were enclosed with the kimchi and delivered to the elderly households by welfare workers.



Meanwhile, CJ ENM O Shopping Division has been conducting various volunteer activities every year for the underprivileged in the local community, such as sharing rice cake soup and songpyeon during holidays, year-end kimchi-making volunteer work, and goods bazaars, starting with the construction and donation of Bangbae Senior Welfare Center to Seocho-gu in 2009.
