GKL donates $20,000 via Red Cross to aid Nepal flood victims

Grand Korea Leisure (GKL), the operator of the foreigner-only Seven Luck casinos, has donated $20,200 to the Korean Red Cross to aid Nepal flood victims. This donation was approved at a social value committee meeting on Thursday. The funds will be used for emergency relief supplies and to help restore damaged housing for those affected by the flooding.

GKL has expressed condolences to those who died in the disaster, as well as to families and communities who lost their homes and livelihoods. The company hopes recovery efforts will move quickly so affected communities can return to their daily lives. This donation is part of GKL's ongoing disaster relief efforts both in Korea and abroad.

In 2025, GKL and its social contribution foundation donated a combined 160 million won to the Korean Red Cross for recovery efforts following wildfires and heavy rains in Korea. In July, GKL donated 20 million won to the organization for earthquake recovery efforts in Venezuela.
