 KDB Family Volunteer
Corps |
|
KDB encourages the participation of its employees and their families in
volunteer social service activities. The vision to have staff bring along their
family members to these volunteer opportunities helped launch the KDB Family
Volunteer Corps in 1996. KDB proudly supports the activities of a number of
established social welfare centers in Korea, including the Jumong Rehabilitation
Center, the Samsung Center for the Hearing Impaired and the Sungrowon Home for
Infants.

| Jumong
Rehabilitation Center |
| For
more than ten years, KDB has supported the Jumong Rehabilitation Center, a home
for children and young adults living with physical and mental disabilities
located in southern Seoul. One Saturday a month, a team of KDB staff and their
families serve as guides and friends on trips to museums, parks, movies, and
other local sites. Several times each year, the Bank celebrates special holidays
with the Center's residents. Approximately, 80 KDB staff and family members
volunteered at the Jumong Rehabilitation Center in 2004. |
| Sungrowon
Home for Infants |
| A
number of KDB staff and their families volunteer time each month at Sungrowon
Home for Infants, a center for orphaned or abandoned children. Several times
throughout the year, the Bank provides support to help the Center purchase
diapers, formula and other essential supplies, as well as to sponsor special
events for the young children. In 2004, more than 100 KDB staff volunteered
their time and energy at the Sungrowon Home for Infants. |
| Samsung
Center for the Hearing Impaired |
| A
team of KDB volunteers dedicate one Saturday a month to the Samsung Center for
the Hearing Impaired, where more than 40 children with hearing disabilities from
across the nation receive care and educational training. The children look
forward to visits from the KDB staff and their families, who play games, ride
bicycles, see cultural performances, visit the zoo, in addition to doing other
group activities with the children. The Bank helps to sponsor special events for
the children of the Samsung Center as well. |
