Toray Advanced Materials Korea Inc. (TAK)
On November 17, 2021, TAK delivered 300 blood donation certificates to the Korea Childhood Leukemia Foundation.
Blood donation certificates are a system unique to Republic of Korea, where a person who had donated blood can receive blood for free if he or she requires blood due to an accident or illness by presenting this certificate. The certificate can be transferred to others or donated and this is the third time for TAK to donate the certificates to the Foundation.
This year's blood donation was called the "ontact" (meaning “warm contact” in English) campaign, in which TAK executives and employees donated blood individually due to COVID-19, instead of the company-wide blood donation campaigns as before.
Some of the comments from the executives and employees who participated in the donation include "We participated in blood donation to overcome the crisis due to the prolonged COVID-19,” and “We feel rewarded to be able to convey the warmth in our heart to children."
An official from TAK said, "We were able to realize the value of sharing through active participation of executives and employees every year," adding, "We hope it will be of great help to children struggling with the disease."
TAK plans to continue various volunteer activities that practice warm sharing, including participation in blood donation.
