Youth Care

Sponsorship of "Villa de Las Ninas" in Mexico

In order to instill hope for the future into the hearts of poverty-stricken teenagers, LG Electronics sponsors la "Villa de Las Ninas." It is an educational institution for young girls, run by the Sisters of Mary in Mexico, a Catholic charity organization

The "Girls' House" was established by an affiliate of the Sisters of Mary in Korea and is an educational, social service institution for some 4,000 underprivileged Mexican girls, who have shown great academic potential. It offers regular secondary and higher education classes as well as one-year vocational training courses in culture, sports, and computer education, to name but a few.

LG Electronics is involved in various financial support activities, which include granting scholarships, supplying medical equipment, lending financial support for the staging of musical concerts, and sponsoring an archery team. Through bazaars, it also offers employees of LG Electronics Mexico an opportunity to actively participate in charity activities, so that employees can grow together on a personal level, while learning to share with one another.

During the summer vacation in 2004, LG Electronics sponsored the activities of the Korean "Boys' House" choir, which included cultural experiences and a performance in the presidential palace in Mexico. In response to this concert, the Mexican "Girls' House" choir paid a visit to Korea and carried out their "beautiful" activities, which included performances at Cheongwadae (the Korean Executive Presidential Mansion) and at the National Assembly.
