[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] NH Nonghyup Bank announced on the 9th that it attended the 'Parents' Day Filial Love Grand Festival' held on the 7th at JW Marriott Dongdaemun Square Seoul and donated 5 million KRW in sponsorship funds to the Center for Supporting Elderly Living Alone.


The 'Parents' Day Filial Love Grand Festival' is an event hosted by the Ministry of Health and Welfare for elderly people living alone. About 40 people, including Kwon Deok-cheol, Minister of Health and Welfare, and corporate officials, attended. The event featured a screening of a customized elderly care service video, carnation pinning, birthday cake cutting for elderly attendees, and a sponsorship gift ceremony. Additionally, some parts of the event were replaced with a YouTube live broadcast to commemorate Parents' Day.


Meanwhile, as part of its social contribution activities, NH Nonghyup Bank has been operating a 'Companion Service' since 2008, where customer happiness center counselors call about 1,000 elderly people living alone every week to check on their well-being and identify any inconveniences. This service has been running for 14 years.



Nam Jaewon, Vice President of the Marketing Division at Nonghyup Bank, said, “We will continue to provide services that can practically help elderly people living alone and become a reliable national bank leading various social contribution activities.”
