OK Savings Bank Launches 'Walking Donation' with No Risk of COVID Infection

[Asia Economy Reporter Minyoung Kim] OK Financial Group, which includes subsidiaries such as OK Savings Bank and OK Capital, announced on the 15th that it is conducting the ‘OK Financial Group Together Campaign.’

This campaign involves a ‘step donation’ in which all employees of OK Financial participate. If they achieve 100 million steps by the 13th of next month, a certain amount of money will be collected and donated. An OK Financial official stated, “The step donation creates a ‘two birds with one stone’ effect by reducing the risk of COVID-19 infection while also improving employees’ health,” adding, “We will also increase employee satisfaction and participation rates through events such as prize giveaways.”

OK Financial Group plans to carry out its CSR activities for the second half of the year in the order of step donations, talent donations, and in-kind donations.

They will also conduct talent donations to make small furniture by November. The small furniture kits consist of a bookshelf, pencil holder, and mood lamp, and assembly takes about two hours. This effort-type volunteer work is done individually at home, eliminating the risk of COVID-19 infection, and participation is open not only to employees but also to their families and acquaintances. The assembled small furniture will be delivered to vulnerable families through local children’s centers by the end of the year.

Yoon Choi, Chairman of OK Financial, said, “Non-face-to-face CSR activities originated from the creative ideas and strong will to share of all employees,” and added, “We will continue our social contribution activities despite COVID-19 and fulfill our role as a financial institution for ordinary people.”
