Implement solidarity initiatives for people who are in vulnerable situations.
For the fourth year in a row, the LLYC Foundation has launched solidarity initiatives in December to encourage the LLYC team to engage in social action that inspires their spirit of solidarity.
284 volunteers from all our operations have collaborated with 14 associations to enhance the quality of life of people in vulnerable situations. Our volunteers donated essential items such as food, toys, clothes, school supplies, and other materials, bringing hope and happiness to more than 500 people.
