Samil Accounting Corporation Volunteers to Deliver Gifts to Local Children
[Asia Economy Reporter Ji-hwan Park] Samil Accounting Corporation announced on the 22nd that the Yongsan-based public-private-academic alliance 'Yongsan Dragons,' consisting of Sookmyung Women's University, Amorepacific, Orion Foundation, Korail Networks, CJ CGV, HDC Shilla Duty Free, HDC Hyundai Development Company, and Yongsan-gu Volunteer Center, held the 'Early Christmas Santa Expedition Season 3' event.
The Early Christmas Santa Expedition is a volunteer activity in which employees of member companies participating in Yongsan Dragons deliver gifts and encouragement to local children at the end of each year.
This year's third event had only a minimal number of volunteers participating to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Daily necessities, school supplies, snacks, and other items prepared by each member company were individually packaged into gift boxes and delivered non-face-to-face to 10 children's facilities in Yongsan-gu, totaling about 230 children.
A representative of Samil Accounting Corporation said, "Although employees could not participate directly this year due to COVID-19, we hope that our warm hearts for the children are fully conveyed," and emphasized, "Although everyone is facing difficult circumstances, we will continue various community contribution activities based on public-private-academic cooperation to fulfill our social responsibility for the local community."
