UNESCO Girls’ Education Campaign
In November 2014, CJ Group established a partnership with UNESCO and launched the UNESCO Girl’s Education Campaign to provide learning opportunities for girls deprived of their educational needs in developing countries. By preparing various items for donation, OLIVE YOUNG devises fun and easy ways for customers to participate, while also helping customers donate some of their accumulated reward points each month on OLIVE YOUNG- promoting enjoyable methods of practicing good consumerism and charitable acts. The campaign’s slogan ‘Beautiful Mind, Beautiful Change’ emphasizes how the beauty of our mindset can bring about beautiful change for the girls’ futures. OLIVE YOUNG promises to take lead in promoting donations that customers can enjoy, while delivering the message that small actions can have great value.
“Share with OLIVE” Employee Volunteer Corps
A volunteer organization of OLIVE YOUNG employees, “Share with OLIVE” practices sharing at community welfare facilities for low-income women and underprivileged children. All employees at OLIVE YOUNG are happy to volunteer, with the aim to serve at least once a year.
Pink Box Sharing Campaign
The Pink Box Sharing Campaign is a special community service program for low-income teenage girls. Each year, we donate sanitary napkins along with eco-friendly canvas bags put together by OLIVE YOUNG employees. Involving employee volunteers makes this campagin more meaningful than simple donations of money or goods. Several suppliers of women's hygiene products also contribute disposable sanitary napkins towards the campaign.
