[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Min-young] Saemaeul Geumgo donated Onnuri gift certificates worth 10 million won as part of the Jomdori Movement to celebrate the Lunar New Year holiday.

According to the Saemaeul Geumgo Central Association on the 23rd, the day before, Park Cha-hoon, chairman of the Saemaeul Geumgo Central Association, visited Ulsan Dong-gu Office to donate Onnuri gift certificates to support low-income vulnerable groups. The donation ceremony was attended by Chairman Park, Jeong Cheon-seok, mayor of Dong-gu, and Park Eun-duk, secretary general of the Ulsan Community Chest of Korea.

The delivered Onnuri gift certificates are scheduled to be provided to 200 low-income vulnerable households in Dong-gu, Ulsan, which has been designated as a special industrial crisis response area.

The MG Hope Sharing Love Jomdori Movement is a social contribution activity of Saemaeul Geumgo. Every year from November 1 to January 31 of the following year, events such as collecting rice for love, fundraising, and volunteering for a warm winter are held at Saemaeul Geumgo branches nationwide to support marginalized neighbors. The funds and goods collected through fundraising activities are provided to individuals such as children suffering from food shortages and elderly living alone, as well as local welfare facilities.

Chairman Park stated, “Due to the recent economic downturn, donation sentiment has weakened, and there are more places in need of support,” adding, “We will further expand support projects for marginalized groups to repay the support of local residents who trust and do business with Saemaeul Geumgo.”
