GC Biopharma Matching Grants

In an effort to ensure continued support for people in need within local communities, GC Biopharma introduced the matching grant program in 2008. This program represents the company and its members’ aspirations to establish itself as the leader in charitable endeavors in Korea.

Activities

Under this program, GC Biopharma matches the financial assistance provided by other organizations for disadvantaged and underprivileged groups, including seniors living in isolation and children without parents. GC Biopharma has partnered with Yongin Community Welfare Center, Community Chest of Korea, Child Fund Korea, and other nonprofit organizations and local governments to identify and support seniors and low-income households in need of help.

GC Biopharma’s executives and employees also visit households on support under the matching grant program, helping them with repairs and maintenance and drawing them to reconnect with local communities.
