Citibank Korea employees, their families and staff from client companies took part in a volunteer program on Saturday as part of Citi’s annual Global Community Day initiative, the lender said Monday.
Launched in 2006, Global Community Day is Citi’s flagship volunteer campaign, bringing together employees worldwide for community-based service projects. More than 1.2 million volunteers have participated since its inception.
Citibank Korea CEO Yoo Myung-soon joined employees in a neighborhood clean-up around Jeong-dong in central Seoul, home to the bank’s headquarters. The group picked up litter near historic sites and took part in a guided walk exploring the district’s cultural and historical significance.
“Citibank Korea is committed to supporting local communities through Citi’s global volunteer initiatives,” Yoo said. “It was especially meaningful to have not only employees and their families, but also staff from our client companies, join us this year.”
