Hantoo Jeung, Reason for Counting Employees' Step Counts

Good Steps Campaign
50 Million Won Donation for Children Who Cannot Walk on Disability Day

[Asia Economy Reporter Ji Yeon-jin] Korea Investment & Securities, a subsidiary of Korea Financial Group (President Jeong Il-moon), announced on the 21st that it donated 50 million KRW to support children with disabilities who cannot walk in honor of Disability Day.

This donation was raised through the 'Good Steps' campaign held over four weeks starting March 24. Now in its second year, the campaign is a contactless social contribution project that accumulates donations by counting employees' steps via the mobile step donation platform 'Big Walk.'

The 50 million KRW raised through active participation of employees will be delivered to children who cannot walk through the Miral Welfare Foundation. Last year, Korea Investment & Securities supported 17 children with disabilities by providing wheelchairs and rehabilitation treatment costs through this campaign.

President Jeong Il-moon said, “Following last year, many employees participated in the Good Steps campaign again this year, sharing precious hearts and warm kindness,” adding, “We will continue to lead sustainable ESG management through sincere social contribution projects integrated into daily life.”

Meanwhile, Korea Investment & Securities has been steadily carrying out various social contribution projects for children, such as the talent sponsorship project for low-income children ‘Dreaming Children’ and support for children from families at risk of crime victimization, to protect children’s precious dreams and support a bright future.
