[Asia Economy Reporter Yuri Kim] Shinsegae Simon announced on the 14th that it held a 'Children's Environmental Education Pop-up Book Donation Event' at the Green Umbrella Children's Foundation.


The children's environmental education pop-up book production activity was conducted as part of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management practices emphasizing the importance of environment and social responsibility, in celebration of Shinsegae Simon's 17th anniversary in June and World Environment Day. Shinsegae Simon employees participated in a two-week non-face-to-face volunteer program to produce about 100 DIY (DO IT YOURSELF) pop-up books.


The pop-up books are environmental education materials tailored to children's perspectives, containing content on protecting the Earth by practicing environmental protection in daily life. They feature illustrations in a three-dimensional pop-up format, providing a visual educational effect.


The approximately 100 'Children's Environmental Education Pop-up Books' to be donated this time will be delivered to five local children's centers through the Green Umbrella Children's Foundation. Shinsegae Simon stated, "We have continued non-face-to-face volunteer activities even during the COVID-19 situation," adding, "We have donated about 300 pop-up books so far."



Shinsegae Simon has supported about 60 million KRW over the past two years for projects improving educational environments in local schools and children's centers in partnership with the Green Umbrella Children's Foundation. A Shinsegae Simon official said, "We will continue to carry out sustainable social contribution activities that can help local communities and children."
