Collecting Part of Employees' Salaries to Raise Donation Funds

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Pyeonghwa] LS Electric announced on the 18th that it donated 5 million won for the Lunar New Year holiday at the Seoul Metropolitan Yongsan Senior Welfare Center located in Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, and held the ‘LS Electric Warm Lunar New Year Project’ event.


This donation was prepared from the LS Electric Chamsarang999 fund. Chamsarang999 is a donation fund voluntarily collected by LS Electric employees by rounding up less than 1,000 won from their monthly salaries to practice love for neighbors. This fund is used to help marginalized neighbors through social welfare organizations such as Good Neighbors.

An LS Electric official said, “We organized this event to care for low-income vulnerable groups who may feel lonely and isolated ahead of the Lunar New Year and to practice small acts of sharing,” adding, “We plan to fulfill our corporate social responsibility by preparing various programs that allow employees to practice sharing in the future.”



Meanwhile, since 2014, LS Electric has been implementing customized support programs considering various marginalized groups and seasons, such as delivering winter clothing to low-income marginalized groups in each business area and gifting holiday lunch boxes during the Chuseok holiday. They are also conducting environmental campaigns for urban ecological preservation in cooperation with local communities and civic groups.
