Nexon Donates 66 Million KRW to Korea Leukemia Pediatric Cancer Association
[Asia Economy Reporter Seungjin Lee] Nexon announced on the 6th that it donated 66 million KRW raised through the in-house donation event "3rd W WEEK" held in December last year to the Korea Leukemia Pediatric Cancer Association to support the treatment of pediatric cancer patients.
"W WEEK" is a regular in-house donation event using employee ID tagging held by Nexon to foster a culture of sharing within the company involving both employees and the company. The company matches the total amount raised by employees combined with separate donations made by individual Nexon members or teams, doubling the donation amount.
From December 5 to 9 last year, Nexon delivered a total of 33 million KRW to the Korea Leukemia Pediatric Cancer Association, which included employee donations raised through the in-house event and prize money donated from the "2022 Pseudonymized Information Utilization Best Practice Competition" award, with the company adding an equal amount. The donation will be used to support surgery costs and rehabilitation treatment expenses for children requiring long-term chemotherapy.
