The Korea Export-Import Bank announced on September 20 that it has donated 360 million won to social welfare facilities nationwide in celebration of Chuseok.
Employee volunteer activities were also carried out. Staff from 13 branches across the country, including Busan, Daejeon, and Gwangju, visited local social welfare facilities to deliver holiday food and essential items to children, people with disabilities, and vulnerable elderly individuals.
Head office employees also participated in the charitable efforts. On September 17, they delivered donations to a free meal service for the homeless near Seoul Station and engaged in serving food. Earlier, on September 15, they visited homes of vulnerable elderly residents in the area to provide rice and essential goods.
Hwang Gi-yeon, president of the bank, stated, "We conducted volunteer activities to convey warmth to our marginalized neighbors during the Chuseok holiday. We will continue to expand our social contribution activities for vulnerable groups throughout society."
