[Asia Economy Reporter Yuri Kim] Lotte Homeshopping announced that on the 16th, ahead of Chuseok, it provided 'cheer kits' to over 100 medical staff and quarantine officials at screening clinics in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, and donated 80 million KRW to the 'Yeongdeungpo-gu Social Welfare Council.'

This event was held as part of the 'Hope Suragan' social contribution activities in the Yeongdeungpo area, where Lotte Homeshopping's headquarters is located. The delivery ceremony, held at 'Hope Suragan' in the annex of Yeongdeungpo District Office, was attended by Shin Seong-bin, Head of Marketing at Lotte Homeshopping, Chae Hyun-il, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo-gu, Park Young-jun, Chairman of the Yeongdeungpo-gu Social Welfare Council, and other officials.

Lotte Homeshopping stated, "To encourage the medical staff and quarantine officials working hard on the front lines of COVID-19 prevention during Chuseok, we delivered 'cheer kits' consisting of vitamins, massage guns, and leg circulation patches," and added, "We donated 80 million KRW to the 'Yeongdeungpo-gu Social Welfare Council' to support underprivileged groups in Yeongdeungpo in overcoming COVID-19."

Lotte Homeshopping also revealed that since 2015, it has built the cooking facility 'Hope Suragan' in the annex of Yeongdeungpo District Office and regularly prepares side dishes every month to deliver to underprivileged groups. To date, a total of 280 sessions and approximately 47,000 side dishes have been provided, and since last year, deliveries have been made in a non-face-to-face manner considering the COVID-19 situation.

Lotte Homeshopping explained, "While we have traditionally prepared and delivered holiday foods during Seol and Chuseok, this time we provided 'cheer kits' to quarantine officials who are doing their best to prevent the spread of COVID-19," and added, "Since March last year, starting with 'daily necessities kits' for vulnerable groups urgently needing infection prevention, we have been conducting various non-face-to-face (untact) win-win activities for underprivileged groups in the region, including supporting children and adolescents struggling with remote learning through 'learning support packages.'"

Shin Seong-bin, Head of Marketing at Lotte Homeshopping, said, "Ahead of Chuseok, we supported 'cheer kits' including vitamins and health products for medical staff and quarantine officials working hard on the front lines of COVID-19 prevention, and also donated funds to help underprivileged groups overcome COVID-19," adding, "We will continue to fulfill our social responsibility through various win-win activities that contribute to the local community."
