Inspire Entertainment Resort Donates Eco-Friendly Benches to Schools in Incheon

Inspire Entertainment Resort's Green Donation

Inspire Entertainment Resort, based in Incheon, South Korea, recently launched an ambitious initiative called the “Inspire Play Green Campaign.” In September 2025, coinciding with the month dedicated to resource circulation, the resort donated 10 eco-friendly benches to three local elementary schools. These benches were crafted from 500 kg of discarded linens that had been repurposed using patented technology into recycled fiber panels, emphasizing Inspire's commitment to sustainability and community engagement.

Campaign Overview

The Inspire Play Green Campaign aimed not only to provide functional outdoor furniture but also to educate the youth on the importance of resource recycling. The benches were given to Changyeong Elementary School, Todam Elementary School, and Yeonil Special School in Incheon, symbolizing a significant step toward environmental responsibility. It is estimated that this initiative will result in a carbon reduction equivalent to planting 32 pine trees.

On September 3rd, a donation ceremony was held at Todam Elementary School, where representatives from Inspire interacted with the students, sharing insights on the significance of recycling resources. This engagement was designed to foster a sense of responsibility among the children regarding their environmental impact.

Additionally, workshops led by experts in resource reuse were conducted at the schools, allowing students to tackle issues such as plastic waste and the importance of recycling. Students participated in hands-on activities, creating artwork from discarded materials like plastic bottle caps, thereby learning the practical aspects of resource conservation.

CSR Activities to Nurture Future Generations

Inspire is dedicated to equipping young individuals in the local community with opportunities to envision and pursue their dreams. Their corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives reflect this commitment through various programs:

Inspire Experience Day

On August 22, 2025, Inspire hosted the “Inspire Experience Day,” a career and cultural event in collaboration with ChildFund Korea. Students from local elementary, middle, and high schools were invited to explore potential career pathways. Activities included presentations by chief concierges on hotel management, table manners workshops, digital art exhibitions, and experiences with immersive displays like “Le Space” and “Aurora.” One scholarship recipient noted that this event solidified her aspiration to work in the hotel service industry to provide incredible experiences for others.

Recognition from Incheon Education Superintendent

On August 26, during the closing ceremony for ChildFund Korea's campaign at Incheon City Hall, Inspire received the “Incheon Education Superintendent’s Award.” This accolade recognized their efforts in educational support, particularly related to scholarships and reducing educational disparities, including the successful “Inspire Experience Day.”

Other Support Activities

- May 2025: Invited local aspiring musicians to attend “Hans Zimmer Live in Korea 2025.”
- Supported a total of 160 scholarship students in the past year.

Through these initiatives, Inspire continues to empower local youth, fostering an environment rich in possibilities and dreams.

A representative from Inspire remarked, “We are committed to implementing diverse social contribution programs that aim to level the educational playing field and foster human resource development in Incheon.
