An International Commitment We are a long-time collaborator with international institutions seeking to achieve the UN
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), an international pledge to reduce the world’s population living below the poverty line by
half by 2015. These Goals, adopted by 192 world leaders in 2000, from our core contribution areas: Environmental Sustainability,
Poverty and Disease. We work in partnership with the diverse stakeholders such as governments, local authorities, NGOs, academia
and international organizations including UN World Food Programme and International Vaccine Institute. With these goals in mind,
we are helping to establish a basis for self-sufficiency and career training in developing countries in Africa and Asia, and contributing
to resolve key social issues in local areas by helping people with shared water tanks in Mexico, a blood donation campaign in Russia
and other initiatives around the globe. Because life should be good for all, LG actively engaged in social contribution initiatives
designed to support self-reliance of the underpriviledged, forster young talents and protect the environment by cooperation with
diverse stakeholders to achieve Sustainable Development Goals.
Donation of Technology Technology can make a big difference in improving lives around the world. And LG is bringing the full
force of our research and development to solve critical needs, build awareness of key issues, and encourage greater involvement.
We are helping bridge the “digital divide” with a mobile phone specifically designed for the visually impaired. And we offer our digital
billboard in New York’s Times Square and London’s Piccadilly Circus to International Organizations for promoting their causes.
LG is a global corporate citizen. We share the concerns of people and their
communities around the globe. Under the umbrella campaign of “Life’s Good with
LG,” we and all of our employees are happy to commit our technological knowledge,
financial resources and communication channels with partner organizations aimed at
creating differentiated value for everyone. It is what we call, “The LG Way”
LG employees are always pitching in All our members to help make a difference in
their own communities. Each year on June 5, tens of thousands of our employees take
part in World Environment Day, volunteering in efforts to improve the environment
across the globe. In 2005, our employees launched a talent sharing volunteering
program called “Life’s Good Volunteers” as a means to organize participation in hundreds
of local projects right where they live. We offer invaluable consulting to social startup
enterprises in partnership with our labor unions. And, we are proud to report that over
96% of LG Korea employees and 85% of executives have chosen to donate of fraction
of their monthly salary to care local community.
