SSG.com announced on the 4th that it has successfully concluded the second half 'SSG Dream Walking Campaign' conducted throughout October for all employees. On the 18th of this month, it will deliver donations to support meals for children facing food insecurity.

Since the second half of last year, SSG.com has been running the 'SSG Dream Walking Campaign' once every half-year, where if participants collectively exceed 100 million steps, the company donates 10 million KRW.

The goal of this second half campaign was to guarantee meal rights for children in Korea and provide balanced meals to children facing food insecurity. SSG.com regularly encouraged employee participation. As a result, the 100 million step target was achieved early in mid-last month, and the final count reached 250 million steps, exceeding the goal. SSG.com will donate 10 million KRW to the international child rights NGO 'Save the Children,' which will use the funds to provide meals and health check-up activities for children facing food insecurity.

Earlier, in April this year, SSG.com conducted the first half walking campaign, achieving a cumulative step count of 180 million steps, and donated 10 million KRW to Save the Children to help children in the Uljin area affected by wildfires.

This year, as part of its ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management, SSG.com operates various social contribution programs. These include the biannual 'SSG Dream Walking Campaign,' where donations are made based on steps walked, and ongoing donation activities linked to killer categories such as fashion, baby and children’s products, and pet supplies. Other initiatives include the 'Book Sharing Campaign,' where employees donate books to 'Beautiful Store,' the 'Blood Donation Certificate Donation Campaign,' where voluntarily donated blood donation certificates over a year are given to the Korea Pediatric Cancer Foundation, and the 'Hope Delivery Campaign,' where the company matches the amount voluntarily donated monthly by employees to contribute to society through everyday sharing.

An SSG.com representative said, "Through the 'SSG Dream Walking Campaign,' we aim not only to practice sharing but also to reduce carbon emissions, promote employee health, and establish a culture of voluntary participation in donations." They added, "We will continue sincere social contribution activities that benefit society in the future."
