[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Seoul Metro Corporation (President Kim Sang-beom) carried out social contribution activities that coexist and cooperate with the local community by raising and delivering 33 million KRW in donations to low-income vulnerable groups such as elderly living alone and multicultural families for the year-end and New Year holidays.

The corporation donated a total of 33 million KRW, raised through employee contributions and its own budget this month, to vulnerable groups in the local community.

The amount was delivered to ▲ elderly living alone ▲ multicultural families ▲ disabled families ▲ welfare facilities, providing economic support as well as emotional support to vulnerable groups.

The corporation has been steadily conducting social contribution activities to support vulnerable groups in the local community. In particular, it operates a ‘Volunteer Week’ every year on its founding anniversary. All 112 departments participate in volunteer activities such as packaging alternative meals for elderly living alone, meal service volunteering, and environmental maintenance in cooperation with welfare facilities near stations, actively contributing to the local community.

Starting this year, the corporation resumed face-to-face volunteer activities that had been suspended due to COVID-19 and plans to continue efforts to coexist with the local community according to local needs.

Na Yoon-beom, Director of Planning and Coordination Office, said, “Next year, the corporation will continue to promote sustainable social contribution activities that empathize with employees and coexist and cooperate with the local community based on ESG management. We will do our best to realize the social value of a public enterprise through environmental and social consideration and the practice of sharing.”
