[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] CJ Freshway announced on the 6th that it delivered about 500 donated items collected from employees over the past three weeks through the ‘Good Cycling Campaign’ to the Milal Welfare Foundation’s ‘Goodwill Store.’

The Goodwill Store is a social enterprise that accepts donations of reusable items, sells them in stores, and uses the proceeds to provide jobs for people with developmental disabilities while practicing environmental protection through resource circulation. Currently, about 280 people with developmental disabilities work at 13 Goodwill Store locations nationwide.

The Good Cycling Campaign was organized to emphasize the effects of creating jobs for people with disabilities and protecting the environment through item donations by CJ Freshway employees and to encourage voluntary participation.

The items donated by CJ Freshway are sold at the Goodwill Store Dobong branch, and all sales proceeds are used to support the salaries of employees with disabilities.

CJ Freshway expects that this resource circulation item donation will have the effect of reducing about one ton of greenhouse gases.

At the delivery ceremony, Choi Seokjung, Head of Management Support at CJ Freshway, said, “To achieve mutual growth with the local community, we plan to expand the Good Cycling Campaign to workplaces and partner companies nationwide,” adding, “We will continue to discover social contribution activities that can practice ESG management through ongoing cooperation with the Goodwill Store.”
