Thanksgiving Campaign for VFWSupporting Korean War veterans in other countries

Charity Project for War Veterans
  • LOTTE has joined hands with the Ministry of National Defense to support
    surviving Korean War veterans in other countries. For its first project, LOTTE built the Korean War Veteran Center in Thailand in 2014. The center serves both as a memorial and a welfare center for Korean War veterans and their families. The center also provides Korean language and Taekwondo classes every weekend. In 2017, the President of the Thai Korean War Veterans Association visited Korea to personally present a plaque of appreciation to LOTTE personally.
    In 2017, LOTTE rebuilt the Korean Community Center to open the “Friendship Hall for Koreans and Colombian War Veterans” in Bogota, Colombia. In November 2019, LOTTE opened the “Ethiopian Veterans of The Korean War” memorial hall in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, the only participating African country in the Korean War, and received a plaque of appreciation from the Ministry of Defense.

    In addition, LOTTE runs a scholarship program for descendants of overseas Korean War veterans to express our gratitude for their sacrifice. Because most of the veterans themselves are now in their 90s, we have extended our assistance program to cover their descendants as well, to help them contribute to their own countries just as their forefathers did for Korea. The LOTTE Scholarship Foundation has provided scholarships to the descendants of veterans in Thailand, Colombia and Ethiopia, where the “Veterans of The Korean War” memorial hall have been established. In addition, it has provided scholarships to more than 100 people annually in the participating countries such as the Philippines and Turkey.
