Donation of Solar Lanterns to Children in Indonesia
KB Kookmin Card announced on June 5 that it will carry out the Lighting Children Social Contribution Activity for children in energy-vulnerable areas in honor of World Environment Day.
Lighting Children is a project that provides solar lanterns handcrafted by employees and customers to children in areas where electricity supply is stable.
The project will deliver 1,300 solar lanterns to children in Indonesia this coming November.
KB Kookmin Card has been carrying out this project in partnership with the Milal Welfare Foundation since 2022.
This activity has been conducted based on the voluntary participation of employees.
KB Kookmin Card is recruiting internal volunteers to carry out solar lantern production activities.
The completed lanterns will be delivered with messages of support.
Customers can take part in this program too. Last year, a lantern-making program for young customers was well-received. KB Kookmin Card will expand the scale of participation this year.
KB Kookmin Card explained that it is conducting environmental, social, and governance activities by practicing eco-friendly values through solar power and contributing to the creation of social value by supporting children overseas.
¡°We hope that these solar lanterns filled with the warm hearts of our employees and customers will bring little hopes to children in energy-vulnerable areas,¡± a KB Kookmin Card official said.
