[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Gyeonggi Housing and Urban Corporation (GH) delivered 110 million KRW collected through a participatory campaign ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday to the Environmental Foundation and the Gyeonggi Social Welfare Community Chest on the 18th.

Since October last year, GH has been conducting a public participation donation challenge linked with the opening of GH World, a metaverse virtual exhibition hall, to spread awareness of the donation culture among the general public.

GH promoted the donation challenge by accumulating 30,000 KRW per participant from the general public to be used for social contribution projects targeting children, the future generation.

A total of 3,332 people participated in the donation challenge, raising a total of 100 million KRW.

On this day, GH delivered 100 million KRW from the donation challenge funds to the Environmental Foundation, requesting that it be used for children suffering from environmental diseases such as asthma and atopy.

The Environmental Foundation plans to select and support 500 children with environmental diseases residing in Gyeonggi Province in the future.

Additionally, GH donated 10 million KRW to the Gyeonggi Social Welfare Community Chest, combining funds raised from employees' salary rounding donations and the donation box at the communication cafe in the headquarters building to support low-income groups in the province.

Kim Se-yong, President of GH, stated, "To further develop social contribution activities led by the corporation this year and to expand participatory social contribution projects involving the general public, we will promote a warm social contribution culture and awareness that adds true meaning to sharing."

GH is engaged in various social contribution activities for community sharing, including ▲ scholarship programs and school environment improvement projects for nurturing future talents ▲ emergency support for vulnerable groups to overcome COVID-19 ▲ matching grants through regular donations by employees and donations of used goods.
