GS E&C, Seoul team up for after-school child care


GS Engineering & Construction (GS E&C) CEO Huh Yoon-hong and Cho Hee-yeon, the superintendent of the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, engaged in discussions during an after-school care partnership event at Cho's office in Seoul. GS E&C revealed its collaboration with the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education to establish new after-school care facilities for elementary school students, particularly aimed at supporting low-income households and families with working parents. The initiative aligns with the Seoul Metropolitan Government's efforts to expand after-school care programs for elementary school students, intending to alleviate the financial burden on families from private after-school classes and provide support for working parents by introducing after-school activities and hiring caregivers. In support of the municipal government's plan, GS E&C will enhance its financial contributions to construct new child care facilities at local elementary schools, catering to after-school programs and other educational services. This effort builds on GS E&C's previous support for the city government and nonprofit organization ChildFund Korea in establishing childcare centers at local elementary schools. The company aims to double its budget this year to build four additional childcare centers at local elementary schools by the end of the year, emphasizing its commitment to creating social value by sharing resources with the local community and supporting future generations. The agreement was formalized through a signing ceremony attended by GS E&C CEO Huh Yoon-hong, Superintendent Cho Hee-yeon, and the head of ChildFund Korea's Seoul office, Shin Jung-won, at the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education's headquarters in Seoul.
