FedEx recently participated in an environmental initiative aimed at addressing plastic waste issues and raising awareness about environmental protection. The event, part of the 'Earth Touch Campaign' organized by the Korea Green Foundation, took place on June 14 at Yeouido Hangang Park. A total of 74 FedEx employees and their family members joined the effort, collecting over 55 kg of trash including PET bottles and plastic bags. This activity is a component of FedEx's global social contribution program, 'FedEx Cares', which aims to foster a healthier environment and encourage participants to continue sustainable practices in their daily lives.
The Korea Green Foundation actively promotes plogging activities with corporate volunteers to raise awareness about plastic waste issues and encourage citizen-led clean-up efforts. They also operate clean-up activities and environmental education programs nationwide, supporting individuals and communities in practicing environmental protection for a sustainable society.
Wonbin Park, Managing Director of FedEx Korea, stated, "This campaign was a meaningful opportunity for our employees and their families to spend time together while directly experiencing the value of environmental protection." He added, "We reaffirmed that small actions can lead to positive changes for local communities and the global environment. We will continue striving for a sustainable future through various community-based environmental and social contribution activities."
