[Asia Economy Reporter Changhwan Lee] KB Insurance announced on the 15th that it was selected as a ‘Community Contribution Recognized Company’ for the fourth consecutive year at the 2022 Community Contribution Recognition Day event held on the 14th at the Dragon City Hotel in Yongsan-gu, Seoul.

The company was also awarded the ‘Minister of Health and Welfare Commendation’ in recognition of its contributions to the local community.

The ‘Community Contribution Recognized Company’ is a system that acknowledges the efforts of companies or institutions that strive to revitalize local communities and exemplary practice social contribution activities.

Since 2019, it has been jointly organized and selected by the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Korea National Council on Social Welfare.

Based on the social contribution vision of ‘The Nation’s Lifelong Hope Partner,’ KB Insurance carries out social contribution activities needed by the local community.

These include KB Hope House Building for children and adolescents, employment and start-up support for youth preparing for independence, support projects for sensory integration therapy rooms for children with developmental disabilities, as well as various social contribution activities for regional co-prosperity such as support projects for mental stability rooms for firefighters linked to insurance businesses like fire, safety, and traffic.

Jokyunghee, Head of Management Strategy at KB Insurance, said, “We are making efforts to faithfully fulfill corporate social responsibility by applying ESG throughout corporate activities,” and added, “KB Insurance will continue to make efforts to practice the true value of mutual growth cooperation and sharing.”
