Strengthening Social Contribution Activities for Lunar New Year
Booyoung Group announced on the 26th that it provided gifts to daycare centers and senior citizen centers within Booyoung apartment complexes nationwide in celebration of the Lunar New Year holiday.
Booyoung Group supported 863 gift sets for 66 Booyoung daycare centers and 240 boxes of fruit gifts for 82 senior citizen centers. This is a representative social contribution activity of Booyoung Group that continues every holiday season.
Booyoung Group also implements unique policies in daycare center operations. It operates 'Booyoung Sarangro Daycare Centers' in the management buildings within Booyoung apartment complexes and fully exempts daycare center rent to support operating expenses. The focus is on reducing the economic burden on parents and improving childcare environments for children.
The group also puts effort into elderly welfare. In 2017, it donated the senior education facility 'Ujeong Training Center' built in Muju-gun, Jeonbuk Province, to the Korean Senior Citizens Association. When senior citizen centers are built within complexes, it provides donation funds.
Booyoung Group also takes the lead in encouraging childbirth. From 2021 to 2023, it provided childbirth support funds of 100 million KRW per child to employees. A total of 7 billion KRW was used as support funds.
Chairman Lee Joong-geun of Booyoung Group and the Korean Senior Citizens Association proposed raising the senior age to 75 to address the ultra-aging population issue. This proposal attracted attention and influenced government policy discussions.
Booyoung Group has spent more than 1.2 trillion KRW on domestic and international social contribution activities. It plans to continue contributing to solving low birthrate and aging population problems and creating a sustainable society.
A Booyoung Group official said, "We hope the gifts prepared by Booyoung Group will be a small help in having a plentiful and happy Lunar New Year holiday," adding, "We will continue various social contribution activities and become a company that shares warm hearts for local communities and our country."
