Korean Air employees visited Yettrang, an underprivileged village with a high poverty rate and no education or welfare benefits. During their time in Yettrang, the volunteers constructed the foundation for a dormitory at a local orphanage and visited the orphanage to spend time with the children.
One of Korean Air’s volunteer groups helped this local community in the city of Manado, North Sulawesi, Indonesia from January 31 to February 5. Manado is the capital city of the Indonesian province of North Sulawesi, located on the island of Sulawesi, the 11th largest island in the world.
