As Part of SK Group's 'One Meal Sharing On(Tact) Project'
[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Yoon-joo] Cho Kyung-mok, President of SK Energy, participated in volunteer work at 'Myeongdong Bapjip' (a free meal service operated by the Catholic Archdiocese of Seoul) on the 5th. On that day, President Cho, along with SK Energy members and Myeongdong Bapjip volunteers, delivered carefully prepared warm lunchboxes and holiday gifts to about 500 people, including homeless individuals and elderly people suffering from food insecurity.
The lunchboxes delivered that day were made by several nearby restaurants struggling due to COVID-19, and the holiday gifts included masks produced by the eco-friendly social venture O2M.
President Cho said, "I participated with the hope that our sincerity would be of some help to those in need. I hope that the warm lunchboxes prepared through small business owners, along with SK Energy's support and happiness, are well conveyed, and I sincerely wish for a happy world where the COVID-19 situation calms down soon."
