Korean Air's volunteer group extends help to hill tribes in Thailand
One of Korean Air's volunteer groups, Sarangnanum ?which means to share love ?has spent almost a week early this month helping residents of several hill tribes in Chiang Dao in the northern part of Thailand.
Many of the inhabitants in the region live in poverty and receive limited education and welfare, according to an airline statement.
The volunteers from the airline helped paved village roads with cement and delivered basic medical supplies including nutritional supplements, analgesics, ointments and cold medicine. They also presented Korean food and simple traditional games to introduce Korean culture.
Sarangnanum is a group founded in 2004 and since then, has been volunteering both domestically and abroad. Korean Air has a total of 27 volunteer groups which actively perform various volunteer projects at orphanages, rehabilitation centers for the disabled, as well as senior care centres to support disadvantaged groups.
In March and August, Korean Air volunteers went to the Philippines to help build shelters for victims of typhoons and earthquakes. Volunteers have also visited Chitwan, Nepal to reconstruct an orphanage and provide medical services.
