Running from the 5th to the 6th of next month, this campaign is a social contribution initiative jointly organized by Dongkook Pharmaceutical, the Comprehensive Support Center for the Elderly Living Alone, and the mobile healthcare platform "WalkOn." Using the donation challenge feature of the walking app WalkOn, if participants collectively reach the total goal of 1 billion steps, Dongkook Pharmaceutical will provide financial support for medical expenses related to leg disease treatment for vulnerable groups. Anyone can easily participate by simply pressing the "Participate" button on the WalkOn app, and after the campaign ends, participants will also receive donation certificates.

For this event, a signing ceremony was held on the 30th of last month at the Comprehensive Support Center for the Elderly Living Alone (Central Elderly Care Support Institution) in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, attended by Kim Hyun-mi, Director of the Comprehensive Support Center for the Elderly Living Alone, and Park Hyuk, Director of OTC Marketing at Dongkook Pharmaceutical, among other officials from both sides. Director Park said, "Last year, through the Walking Donation Campaign with Sensia, we supported surgery costs for low-income patients with varicose veins and received great responses. We hope many people will participate in this campaign as well, taking care of their health and practicing warm neighborly love through donations."
