Samil PwC Conducts Volunteer Work on 'Child Abuse Prevention Day'

Samil PwC announced on the 17th that it conducted a 'Child Abuse Prevention Campaign Volunteer Service' in the Yongsan-gu area of Seoul.

This volunteer activity was planned to coincide with Child Abuse Prevention Day, established to raise awareness of the seriousness of child abuse issues and the need for prevention programs. Employees from 18 member companies of Yongsan Dragons, a public-private-academic volunteer group based in Yongsan including Samil PwC, participated.

On the day, about 100 volunteers gathered at the Yongsan Children's Garden to assemble 500 kits containing the character doll 'Hoyatoto,' created by Seoul City to heal the hearts of abused children, cloth books, message cards, and blankets designed by illustrator Aesung. These kits will be distributed to child protection teams in 25 autonomous districts of Seoul, 18 specialized child protection agencies, and shelters.

Meanwhile, Samil PwC established the Samil Future Foundation, the first public interest corporation in the accounting industry, in 2008 and has been conducting projects such as youth education and support for related facilities, as well as improving accounting transparency for non-profit organizations. Since 2018, as a member of Yongsan Dragons, it has actively participated in activities to solve local community issues, including youth job mentoring, sharing goods in jjokbangchon (small room villages), and 'Miri Christmas.' Yongsan Dragons was recognized for its contributions to community coexistence activities and received the Seoul Volunteer Merit Award in 2022.
