At a time where the idea and value of “corporate citizenship” is producing growing repercussion in society, SK Networks’ active engagement in the community through its many charity and community service programs did not go unnoticed. 

To help Iran suffering a severe shortage of food and other necessaries in the aftermath of last year’s Bam earthquake, SK Networks made a donation of clothes worth 300 billion won to the Republic of Korea National Red Cross (President Yun-gu Lee) early this year.   

More recently, following the creation of the SK Volunteer Service Corps, a group-wide organization of SK Group employees volunteering for community service programs, SK Networks’ members  started their first service activity in the context of ‘Neighbor Love Home Building 2004,’ a Habitat Movement program. 

CEO Man-won Jeong himself rolled up his sleeves to participate in the program, giving up a portion of his summer leave. Although not in the form of colossal amounts in donation, these heartfelt and practical contributions are certainly not as modest as they appear and communicate genuine solidarity and attention to distressed neighbors in our society.   

SK Networks’ employees are carrying out on-going community programs such as a blood drive, launched in January of this year in response to the blood shortage in the country, resulting from the decline in donors, and its weekly visit to Raphael House (in Jongno-gu, Seoul), a handicapped children’s home. 

Meanwhile, the Love Steamed Bun Club, an employee charity club with 107 members, visits nursing homes and handicapped children facilities every Saturday and delivers Korean steamed buns (jjinbang) they themselves have baked.
