LG Electronics has reiterated its commitment to driving healthy living through nationwide Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives and extension of its ‘Life’s Good with LG Wash’ intervention to Ibadan, Oyo State.
The company has commissioned four Free Wash Centres across the country namely; Port Harcourt, Lagos, Benin and Kano with the aim of supporting communities lacking adequate water to efficiently carry out laundry activities as well as encourage proper hygienic living.
The new Free Wash Centre situated at the LG showroom on Iwo road, Oyo State becomes the fifth laundry cabin launched by LG Electronics since the commissioning of the state-of-the-art free wash centres across the key regions in the country. The first of its kind was built in Lagos in 2018 and since then, other regions have enjoyed the unique CSR initiative.
