Korea Development Bank Shares Love with Kimchi Making... Delivered to 1,200 Underprivileged Households

Practicing Neighborly Love through Kimjang Sharing for the Underprivileged and Social Welfare Facilities

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Sun-mi]Industrial Bank of Korea announced on the 9th that it held a Kimchi Sharing event.

The Kimchi Sharing event is a representative love-sharing sponsorship project jointly hosted by the Industrial Bank of Korea and the Seoul Saemaul Association since 2008. Every year, the bank’s chairman, employees, the executive family association, and volunteer members of the Seoul Saemaul Women’s Association participate together to make kimchi using locally grown agricultural products such as napa cabbage and red pepper powder, and deliver it to underprivileged neighbors.

This year, to prevent the spread of COVID-19, kimchi was purchased from social enterprises and delivered with heartfelt care to welfare facilities and 1,200 underprivileged households in Seoul. In addition to kimchi, the Industrial Bank of Korea also prepared newly harvested rice from Yangjiri Village in Cheorwon-gun, Gangwon-do, which has a sisterhood relationship under the 'One Company One Village' program, and delivered it to 11 affiliated welfare facilities.

An official from the Industrial Bank of Korea said, "We hope that this love-sharing event will convey a little warmth and kindness," and added, "We will continue to strive for a warm world through sharing hands."
