Social Contribution
Building a Better Society Through Proactive Engagement
HanmiGlobal publicly states that “to contribute to human progress” is the reason for its existence, and it lists “Contribution” among its core values. A Social Contribution Committee, composed of employee and executive social-contribution leaders, meets regularly to design and implement all community-engagement initiatives. Since the company’s founding in 1996, volunteer service has been both a founding philosophy and an enduring part of our culture, and we regard its continuous evolution as a corporate duty. Participation instills strong pride in the company, which in turn enhances client satisfaction. Because higher customer satisfaction lifts business performance and corporate value, every employee recognizes social contribution as essential to HanmiGlobal’s long-term sustainability.
At the center of such efforts is the Social Contribution Committee, a 50-member body ranging from staff to executives. Besides setting overall strategy and making key decisions, committee members serve as volunteer-site leaders who coordinate cooperation between partner organizations and HanmiGlobal employees. The committee identifies and runs diverse programs, such as expanding space-welfare programs, donating advanced assistive devices, and creating jobs for people with disabilities, to help build a barrier-free society. It also widens our impact through quarterly special service days and volunteer projects tied to company-wide events and club activities.
2025 Performance
Six Flagship Social Contribution Programs and Matching Grant
Through our Double-Matching Grant scheme, which pairs 1% of every employee’s salary with an equal corporate donation, we build a dedicated fund that finances six flagship social-contribution programs in partnership with our key NGOs.
By linking every initiative to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we generate broader social value for employees, partners, and the communities we serve.
Space-Welfare
HanmiGlobal connects its core corporate capability, Project Management (PM), with social contribution activities to create differentiated synergy through the spatial welfare initiatives of the social welfare corporation Warm Companions. Based on the philosophy that “if a space is convenient for people with disabilities, it is convenient for everyone,” HanmiGlobal provides customized spatial welfare solutions for small-scale disability facilities and residential spaces. These solutions include renovation of aging facilities as well as the application of IoT technologies and universal design tailored to the specific needs of people with disabilities. As a result of these efforts, Warm Companions achieved the milestone of completing its 2,000th spatial welfare project at the Gangdong Green Narae Welfare Center in December 2025. HanmiGlobal will continue to lead efforts toward creating a warmer world without barriers.
Advanced Assistive-Device
Providing customized, advanced assistive devices tailored to each individual’s needs enables people with disabilities to overcome physical barriers not only in daily life but also in school, work, and social activities. Since the program’s launch, we have focused on young people with strong growth potential, supplying devices specifically adapted to their type of disability. Recipients report that the equipment lets them participate in society without restrictions, pursue their studies and careers, and continue striving toward their dreams with confidence.
Disability Job-Creation Grants
Quality employment is essential for a fulfilling life. We support university teams, social enterprises, and social ventures that create sustainable businesses aimed at reducing barriers for people with disabilities and generating good jobs.

International Development Cooperation
We extend our space-welfare program beyond Korea, improving living environments for Korean War veterans, persons with disabilities in veteran-supporting nations, and people with disabilities in developing countries such as Türkiye, Ethiopia, Vietnam, and the Philippines. By renovating homes and community facilities, we enhance residents’ right to adequate housing, quality of life, and prospects for independence in line with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
North Korean Defector Assistance
HanmiGlobal provides various forms of support to help North Korean defector youth overcome cultural and social challenges, successfully settle into South Korean society, and grow into future leaders contributing to unification. Specifically, the company continues to support art psychotherapy programs for students at Yeomyung School to promote emotional stability. In addition, HanmiGlobal operates the Unification Talent Academy, selecting capable young individuals and supporting the development of leadership capabilities among future unification talents. Furthermore, HanmiGlobal implemented an integrated care program for 16 socially isolated North Korean defectors with disabilities, supporting their adaptation to life in South Korean society.
Community-Based Volunteer Partnerships
HanmiGlobal conducts monthly volunteer activities with employees and their families at approximately 80 volunteer organizations. More than 70% of employees regularly participate in volunteer activities, which are connected with local community organizations near each project site to address the needs of surrounding communities. Employees who participate in volunteer activities have expressed high levels of satisfaction, as the programs provide opportunities to build meaningful connections with beneficiaries through continuous engagement rather than one-time events.

Metrics & Targets
Mid- to Long-term Social Contribution Goals and Performance
HanmiGlobal continues to expand its social contribution activities in order to grow together with local communities. The company has established employee participation-based volunteer activities as a key performance indicator and regularly monitors the level of implementation and participation in social contribution programs. In particular, HanmiGlobal manages volunteer hours per employee to ensure that social contribution activities extend beyond one-time support initiatives and become embedded as part of employees’ voluntary participation and organizational culture. In 2025, the average volunteer hours per employee reached 33 hours, achieving the established target. HanmiGlobal will continue to expand participation opportunities in social contribution activities and operate programs that deliver meaningful value to local communities, fulfilling its responsibilities as a corporate citizen.
