Hanjin Shares "Warm Voices" with Children in Reading Blind Spots

After Professional Voice Training, Employees Record Storybooks Themselves to Create Audiobooks

Hanjin has donated warm voices to create audiobooks that will be delivered to children in reading blind spots.

On September 4, Hanjin announced that on August 31, it carried out a volunteer activity in cooperation with ChildFund Korea at the new Hanjin Building in Sogong-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul, to produce audiobooks for children in reading blind spots.

Hanjin executives and employees recorded audiobooks to be delivered to children in reading blind spots on the 31st of last month at the new building of the Hanjin Building in Sogong-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul. Hanjin

This volunteer activity was planned to support children who have little access to adults who can read to them during vital language development periods, such as those from multicultural families, students at special schools for children with disabilities, children from single-parent or grandparent-headed households, and young patients in children's wards.

The activity was funded in part by the proceeds from Hanjin's 'One Click Delivery' logistics platform for supporting small business owners. The completed audiobook files will be delivered to the children along with books and reading assistive devices.

The Hanjin employees who voluntarily participated in this event received pronunciation and reading training from professional voice actors before personally reading and recording storybooks for about three hours, creating audiobooks to deliver warm voices to the children.

This initiative is part of Hanjin's flagship social contribution program, the 'Love Connect' campaign. Since 2021, Hanjin has continued this campaign to fulfill its corporate social responsibility (CSR) and integrate sharing activities with its business capabilities.

Now in its fifth year, 'Love Connect' has supported a variety of meaningful initiatives, including volunteering to provide 'Lunch Boxes of Love' for undernourished children in partnership with World Vision, distributing policy campaign box tape to support 'at-risk pregnant women' in cooperation with the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the National Center for the Rights of the Child, and cemetery cleanup volunteering at Seoul National Cemetery.

A Hanjin representative stated, "We hope the warm voices of our employees will help bridge the information gap and support the healthy development of children in reading blind spots," adding, "We will continue to pursue diverse sharing activities to fill social welfare gaps and consistently practice ESG management."
