CBRE Korea, a global commercial real estate services company, visited Gaemi Village located in Hongje-dong, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul on November 16 to deliver “briquettes of love” as part of its CBRE Cares social contribution campaign, which is being carried out by CBRE offices around the world to support local communities.

About 80 executives and employees of CBRE Korea who participated in the event spent meaningful time delivering 5,000 charcoal briquettes to underprivileged families suffering from winter heating cost burdens. In addition, CBRE Korea held an in-house fundraising event that raised 6 million won. The company is planning to deliver warmth to families in Gaemi Village who are experiencing hardships by donating the funds to the Babsang Community Foundation and Briquette Bank.

“To see the impact of our act of sharing for those in need every year is very rewarding and fulfilling. CBRE Korea will continue to expand our commitment to local communities through a variety of campaigns,” said Don Lim, Managing Director of CBRE Korea.

CBRE Korea conducts volunteer activities for the local community every year in November through its CBRE Cares campaign. The company carries out donation campaigns such as delivering 5,000 charcoal briquettes, making kimchi for the elderly and supporting animal shelters for abandoned animals.
