Korean Air and Asiana Volunteer to Improve Residential Environment for Local Children
19 "Houses of Hope" Built Nationwide Over 22 Years
Korean Air announced on the 29th that it carried out a volunteer activity to create a safe residential environment at Zion Orphanage in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, on the 26th, together with employees of Asiana Airlines.
Korean Air began its partnership with Habitat for Humanity Korea in 2001 by providing support for construction costs, and since 2004, its employees have directly participated in residential environment improvement projects. Over the past 22 years, a total of about 800 employees have contributed to building 19 "Houses of Hope" in various locations across the country, including Daejeon, Yangpyeong, Cheonan, Chuncheon, and Jinju.
On this day, around 20 employees from both companies helped by completely replacing old wallpaper, sanding and painting the walls for a clean finish, installing safety handrails on the stairs, and moving goods.
