One-Year Tuition Support for One Subject at a Private Academy per Low-Income Youth
In celebration of Family Month, Daesung Energy visited the Daegu branch of the Korean Red Cross on the 27th and delivered a donation of 35 million KRW, raised through a matching grant program by employees and the company, to support the 'Dreams Come True, Dream' project.
Daesung Energy visited the Daegu branch of the Korean Red Cross on the 27th to deliver a sponsorship fund of 35 million won, raised through a matching grant, as support for the "Make Your Dream Come True, Dream" project in celebration of Family Month.
The 'Dreams Come True, Dream' project is a program that supports academy tuition fees for one subject per person, helping low-income youth who only receive school classes to supplement their learning.
The matching grant sponsorship is a social contribution activity where employees make regular monthly donations, and the company matches the same amount. For example, if an employee donates 15,000 KRW each month, the company contributes an equal amount.
Since 2015, more than 100 employees have participated annually for nine years, continuously supporting projects for abused children, local underprivileged youth, improvement of healthcare and educational environments in Zambia and Ethiopia, and assistance for grandparent-grandchild families in welfare blind spots.
Park Moonhee, CEO of Daesung Energy, said, "The matching grant sponsorship is a meaningful program in which labor and management participate together with one heart and mind," and added, "Daesung Energy will continue to do its best to practice ESG sharing management for the realization of a healthy society."
