View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Song Seung-yoon] Lotte Chilsung Beverage announced on the 30th that it has donated funds to the Korea Leukemia Children's Foundation, a private organization specializing in supporting children with pediatric cancer and leukemia.
The donation, totaling 27.5 million KRW, comes from the success fees of the employees' goal achievement fund and the profits from the robot coffee machine installed at the headquarters. The funds will be used for the medical expenses of children undergoing treatment for pediatric cancer and leukemia who are facing financial difficulties. Earlier this year, Lotte Chilsung Beverage also supported the treatment costs of four children with a donation of approximately 26 million KRW.
Lotte Chilsung Beverage conducts a goal achievement fund every year to strengthen employees' spirit of challenge and expand donation experiences. The goal achievement fund is a system where employees select one goal such as exercising daily, dieting, or quitting smoking at the beginning, and if they achieve it within the set period, they can donate the success fee.
