Korea Overseas Infrastructure & Urban Development Corporation (KIND) said on the 19th that it carried out a social contribution activity to improve housing conditions in the Seoul Station jjokbangchon on the 15th. KIND is a public institution that discovers and develops investments in overseas infrastructure, urban development and plant projects.
The activity was planned as part of KIND's training for new employees and was carried out in collaboration with the Happy Sharing Volunteer Association. Executives and employees who took part in the volunteer work supported interior repair tasks such as wallpapering and painting in the aging jjokbangchon, helping improve the practical living conditions of vulnerable groups.
A KIND official said, "As our corporation is at the forefront of overseas investment and development projects, it is naturally also our duty as a public institution to improve poor housing conditions at home," adding, "In particular, we hope newly appointed employees, by sweating on site and experiencing firsthand the value of infrastructure improvement, will grow into talent that prioritizes social value (ESG) on the global stage going forward."
