Support for Revitalization of Fishing Villages

Jeonbuk Bank and the National Pension Service visited an island village in Gunsan to carry out environmental cleanup and livelihood support activities in celebration of Family Month.

The Jeonbuk Bank Local Love Volunteer Group, under JB Financial Group, announced on May 15 that it had visited Bangchukdo in Okdo-myeon, Gunsan, together with the National Pension Service, to conduct joint social contribution activities.

This initiative was organized as the first joint project to build a sustainable social contribution system through collaboration between local public institutions and financial institutions. The event was attended by Lee Yogyu, Welfare Director of the National Pension Service, Jeong Wonho, Chairman of the Jeonbuk Bank Labor Union, and Kim Eunho, Deputy President of Jeonbuk Bank.

On this day, about 20 employees from both organizations collected discarded fishing equipment and household waste along the coast as part of their beach cleanup efforts. They also delivered necessary supplies to a pension jointly operated by island residents. In particular, the Jeonbuk Bank Local Love Volunteer Group signed a sisterhood agreement with Bangchukdo under the 'One Company One Fishing Village' program and committed to continuing support for the revitalization of fishing villages.

Recently, as local public institutions and the financial sector have strengthened ESG management and community coexistence activities, cases of collaborative social contribution between organizations are increasing. Jeonbuk Bank has consistently carried out coal sharing, scholarship programs, and support activities for vulnerable groups, while the National Pension Service has expanded its community-based volunteer activities since relocating to the Jeonbuk Innovation City.

Jeong Wonho, Chairman of the Jeonbuk Bank Labor Union, said, "It was a meaningful time to be able to share and work together to coexist with the local community," adding, "We will continue to work with local organizations and groups to support our neighbors in need."
