The Meritorious Service Medal is an award given to individuals or organizations that have contributed to the financial resources of the Red Cross and the spread of humanitarian spirit. Paldo has participated in Red Cross activities since 2014. During national disasters such as COVID-19 and the Uljin and Samcheok wildfires, it delivered relief supplies to the Red Cross. As of the end of 2023, the cumulative value of donated goods amounts to 130 million won.

A Paldo official said, "Paldo has been striving to create a society where everyone participates together," adding, "We will work with the Red Cross to pay more attention to places in need and contribute to spreading a culture of sharing."

Meanwhile, Paldo is also engaged in community-based social contribution activities through its in-house volunteer group, the 'Paldo Sharing Volunteer Group.' The volunteer group consists of Paldo employees who pool a portion of their monthly salaries to create a fund and carry out various activities that benefit the local community. Support for food banks for vulnerable groups has also continued for 10 years. The cumulative donation amount reaches 1 billion won.
