On the 23rd, Lotte held a closing ceremony at Lotte World Tower in Songpa-gu, Seoul, to mark the end of activities of the Lotte University Student Volunteer Group 'Value,' the company announced on the 24th.

At the closing ceremony, presentations on the volunteer group's activities, video screenings, certificate presentations, and awards for outstanding teams were held. The Lotte Holdings ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) team introduced the group's ESG activities, and Lee Jong-hyuk, director of the Public Communication Research Institute, gave a special lecture titled "Small Powers That Change the World, Campaigns."

The 80 members of the 20 teams of the Value volunteer group carried out various volunteer activities across the local community for a total of 206 hours over four months starting from October last year. Environmental-themed activities included upcycling education, zero-waste initiatives, coffee grounds recycling, and plogging, while social-themed activities included psychological support for elderly living alone, awareness improvement for multicultural and single-parent families, and nutritional support for seniors.

Meanwhile, the Value university student volunteer group began in 2018 through an idea contest on the Lotte Group website. Value stands for 'Value Creators in Universities,' meaning valuable volunteer activities by university students. Lotte plans to recruit the Value volunteer group again and continue activities in the second half of this year.
