Citizens who wish to participate on-site can apply via Naver Form by the 21st, with registration limited to the first 1,000 applicants. Participating citizens will receive a walking donation certificate through the WalkOn walking app (Suncheon City’s official community).

This campaign is a citizen walking movement where, once 100 million healthy steps are achieved monthly with the participation of Suncheon citizens, 2 million KRW in medical expenses are donated to medically vulnerable groups such as cancer patients and those with rare and intractable diseases, providing hope and support to overcome difficult challenges.

The May donation of 2 million KRW was sponsored by Haiden Dental Clinic (Director Kang In-seong), which provides oral health care services to citizens in Jorye-dong.

A Suncheon City official said, “We hope families will participate together in the May Family Month walking donation campaign, enjoying Ocheon Green Square to the fullest while taking care of their health through walking and donating.”
