The Sejong Migrant Workers Welfare Center is a private volunteer organization that helps foreign migrant workers and their children settle in Korea. It offers Korean language education and adaptation programs for Korean society. Marking "World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development" on May 20, Lotte Construction selected this site as its 100th project so that foreign immigrants, who are often left out of welfare support, can live in a safer environment.

Before the volunteer activity, Lotte Construction replaced the center’s outdated heating and cooling systems, wallpaper, and flooring. On the event day, employees cleaned the interior of the center and carried out additional renovation work, such as installing blinds and doors. Snacks were also provided to children of foreign migrant families.

Since 2012, "Love House" has been Lotte Construction’s ongoing facility improvement initiative. Leveraging its expertise in construction, the company has renovated local children's centers, child welfare facilities, and disaster-affected sites. Project funding comes from the "Charlotte Volunteer Fund," jointly created by employees and the company. The fund operates on a "1-to-3 matching grant" system, where the company contributes three times the amount donated by employees from their salaries.

A representative from Lotte Construction stated, "Through this 100th project, we hope that migrant workers and their families can live in a better environment," adding, "We will continue to bring hope to underserved communities by leveraging our expertise in construction."
