[Asia Economy Reporter Jeong Hyunjin] LG Electronics announced that it will hold an online charity auction from the 9th to the 18th ahead of the Amundi Evian Championship held at the Evian Resort Golf Club in France on the 22nd.

The charity auction features world-class professional golfers Go Jin-young and Park Sung-hyun, sponsored by LG SIGNATURE, as well as the Evian Resort, which hosts the Amundi Evian Championship.

The players put up golf drivers, golf apparel, and more for auction. Among them is the golf driver Go Jin-young used when she became the leading money winner in the 2020 LPGA Tour after only four events that season. LG Electronics sponsored premium home appliances such as the LG SIGNATURE OLED R, wine cellar, and refrigerator, while Evian Resort sponsored accommodation vouchers.

The customer who wins the bid for the LG SIGNATURE OLED R can have their name or a desired phrase engraved on the product. The fabric color of the speaker section can also be chosen from Signature Black, Moon Grey, Topaz Blue, or Toffee Brown. Additionally, they will receive three pro-am tickets to participate in a game with players who took part in the 2022 Amundi Evian Championship.

LG Electronics plans to donate all proceeds from the auction to an organization supporting children with autism located in Paris, France. LG Electronics explained that the purpose is to help children who find it difficult to attend in-person classes due to COVID-19. Customers who wish to participate in the online charity auction or want to check detailed information about the auction can refer to the official LG SIGNATURE website.

Previously, LG Electronics has been the official sponsor of the Amundi Evian Championship, one of the world's five major women's golf tournaments, since 2017. Lee Jung-seok, Executive Vice President of LG Electronics' Global Marketing Center, said, "We will continue global marketing to fulfill corporate social responsibility while widely promoting the technology and value of LG SIGNATURE."
