View original imageSNET Group (Chairman Park Hyodae) announced on December 4 that it had donated a total of 388 pieces of IT equipment through the "Sending Love PCs" donation event organized by the Korea IT Welfare Promotion Agency.
This donation was made to return SNET Group's IT assets to the local community and to help bridge the digital divide for groups with limited access to education and information. In particular, it is meaningful in that it simultaneously embodies ESG management values by promoting both environmental protection through resource circulation and expanding opportunities for digital learning and utilization.
The IT equipment donated by SNET Group includes 310 laptops, 55 monitors, and 23 PC main units and peripherals, totaling 388 devices. This is about 1.5 times larger than the donation made through the Korea IT Welfare Promotion Agency two years ago, and marks the third time SNET Group has participated in such ongoing social contribution activities this year alone.
The donated equipment will be distributed through the Korea IT Welfare Promotion Agency to children and youth from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, households with limited access to information, local children's centers, and welfare facilities. As a result, it is expected that the learning environment for children and youth who previously struggled to obtain personal computers will be greatly improved, and local residents will have more opportunities to participate in a variety of digital activities, such as computer education and online learning.
