147 Billion KRW Donated and Steady Contributions Over 24 Years
On the 6th, S-Oil announced that it received the Presidential Citation at the 25th Social Welfare Day ceremony hosted by the Ministry of Health and Welfare.
S-Oil was recognized for its contribution to spreading a culture of sharing by donating a total of 147 billion KRW over 24 years through its four major social contribution programs: 'Supporting the Underprivileged, Local Communities, Heroes, and the Environment.'
Since 2011, S-Oil has signed an agreement with the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Korea National Council on Social Welfare for the 'Gas Station Sharing N Campaign' program, supporting socially vulnerable groups through community-linked social contribution programs at gas stations. The company has led various activities to fulfill its corporate social responsibility, including employee salary rounding donations, volunteer work, and sponsoring performances by the Heart Heart Orchestra, Korea’s first orchestra composed of youths with developmental disabilities, since 2009.
To encourage the activities of those who protect citizens' lives and property and dedicate themselves to neighbors in need, S-Oil has supported the 'Firefighter Hero Keeper' program since 2006, the 'Citizen Hero Keeper' program since 2008, and the 'Coast Guard Hero Keeper' program since 2013. In 2011, S-Oil received the Presidential Citation on Firefighters’ Day in recognition of its contributions to the Firefighter Hero Keeper program.
