Bank Shinhan Indonesia reaffirmed its commitment to sustainability and community engagement by carrying out an environment-focused Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program in Kampung Kongsi, Kampung Ramah Lingkungan Awi Iuh, RW 07, Cibereum Village, Cisarua District, Bogor Regency. The CSR event was held at the Cisarua Community Sports Hall (GOM) and attended by 44 employees, including President Director Mr. Koo Hyunghoe, members of the Board of Directors, and representatives from the local community. The program aimed not only to preserve the environment but also to strengthen collaboration between the private sector and local residents through shared action. 

The day began with a plogging activity — a unique one-hour combination of jogging and litter collection — where employees joined hands with local residents to clean the village environment. Participants collected various types of waste, separating recyclables to demonstrate the importance of daily environmental care. After the activity, the Bank symbolically donated four waste banks, 20 sets of plogging equipment, 20 environmental-themed children’s books, and a bookshelf to the local community reading garden. The donation was officially handed over by Mr. Koo to Mrs. Novita, Head of RW 07, witnessed by community representatives and local authorities.

Through this initiative, Bank Shinhan Indonesia aims to promote environmental awareness among its employees and local communities, encourage responsible waste practices, and support cleaner surroundings. The donation of children’s books on environmental topics also demonstrates the Bank’s commitment to instilling sustainability values in the next generation — fostering environmental consciousness from an early age. “At Bank Shinhan Indonesia, we believe that real sustainability begins with small, collective actions that benefit both people and the planet. Through this CSR activity, we hope to encourage greater awareness among employees and the community that protecting the environment is not just a responsibility but also an opportunity to grow together,” said Mr. Koo Hyunghoe, President Director of Bank Shinhan Indonesia.
