We encourage our people to join together in reaching out to their local communities.
Employees volunteer their money and time to care for elderly shut-ins, parentless families, and the disabled as well as worthy local charities and non-profit organizations.

In January 2005, we launched a matching grant program called the “Twin Angel Fund” to dramatically expand the impact our employees can make. Over 5,000 joined the program, raising KRW 238 million that was matched by an equal amount from the company. The fund’s major projects in 2005 included underwriting the cost of heating for after-school study programs, medical care at senior centers, and school lunch programs.

Introducing youth to the world of chemistry and science is another one of our major outreach goals. Each year, we sponsor or co-sponsor a number of programs to help inspire tomorrow’s scientists and researchers.

A partnership with Hanyang University and the Korea Science Foundation, our Mobile
Chemistry Lab program visits primary schools and orphanages across Korea, giving younger students a fun, hands-on learning experience. For middle schoolers, we host LG Chemistry
Camp several times a year. These three-day programs provide an engaging introduction to chemistry and an up-close look at how the raw materials of everyday products are made.
