KT&G (CEO Young-jin Min) sets out on volunteer activities abroad by dispatching local volunteers comprised of university students and invites volunteers for ‘Correspondent of Cambodia Hope Class IV’.

Once dispatched to Siem Reap Province in Cambodia, these volunteers will build school facilities, conduct maintenance, and deliver other services for two weeks. In addition, drawing on their own specialties, they will provide colorful and fun cultural experiences to local students.
 
Application can be submitted to KT&G on Facebook(www.facebook.com/ktngcorp) including the motive and specialty. Final candidates are selected through in-depth interviews after preliminary screening based on application, social mission and Facebook ‘likes’.
 
An insider from KT&G said, “KT&G, a global company with presence in 50 countries, is playing an active role in social responsibilities overseas as well. I wish the students volunteers could realize the value of love and sharing through volunteer work to take the leading role in the globalized era.”

Since 2005, KT&G has sent volunteers and employees dispatches comprised of university students and company employees. The company has also worked to expand educational facilities, including library and on-the-water preschool facilities. Meanwhile, in addition to Cambodia, KT&G has been providing support for medical services in Indonesia, Uzbekistan and Mongolia. The company also established a Korean Language Institute in Jakarta as a means to propagate Korean culture.
