University Scholarships In 1998, our headquarters staff
founded the Stepping Stone University Scholarship pro-
gram to support needy disabled students who demon-
strate exceptional scholastic ability as well as a strong
determination to overcome their disability. Funded by
monthly contributions from some 400 staffers, the pro-
gram awarded a total of 10 scholarships for the 2001/2002
school year.
Audio Computing Since 1997, we have offered special
computer courses for guide dog recipients training at the
Samsung Guide Dog School for the Blind. In 2001, we
joined the Korea Welfare Foundation for the Visually
Handicapped to hold the 1st Annual Internet Search
Competition for the Visually Handicapped in December, an
event that challenged the 130 participants to surf the
Internet for information using only their voices.
Volunteer Spirit There is a strong tradition of grass-
roots volunteerism at Samsung. Organized at the team
level, there are more than 260 volunteer groups that
share their time on either a weekly or monthly basis to
help the disabled and disadvantaged in their local com-
munities. All in all, more than 15,000 members of our
global family are involved in making a difference in their
part of the world.
