Auction Donates 1,000 Toys and Clothing Items to Low-Income Children

[Asia Economy Reporter Seungjin Lee] Auction, operated by eBay Korea, announced on the 4th that it has delivered 1,000 toys and clothing items donated by eight brand companies to the Green Umbrella Children’s Foundation.

This toy donation is part of Auction’s customer participation event, “The Standard for Children’s Day Gifts.” From April 20 to 30, one brand’s toys and children’s clothing were offered at special prices daily, and donations were made using a 1:1 matching grant method based on the quantity sold. Toy brands such as Young Toys, Mattel, Hasbro, Mimi World, iZone, and Gymboree, as well as clothing brands like Pancot and Kappa Kids (children’s shoes), participated by donating popular items from each brand.

Auction planned and conducted the event and will send gift packages individually to the addresses of children’s households received through the Green Umbrella Children’s Foundation. The Green Umbrella Children’s Foundation is a child advocacy organization that carries out child welfare projects for various groups, including multicultural families, grandparent-headed households, and local children’s centers.

Meanwhile, in February, Auction raised 10 million won in donations through the “Smile Club Double Donation Challenge” with popular YouTube creators and delivered the funds to firefighters battling illnesses. In addition, in February, Auction donated masks and hygiene products to vulnerable groups in Daegu and Gyeongbuk affected by the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), continuing various activities linking shopping and sharing.
