This donation is part of the 'Emart24 Strikeout Donation Campaign,' and the donated funds will be used to support childcare supplies and parenting education expenses for single mother and single father families in the Incheon area. The handover ceremony held the previous day at Incheon SSG Landers Field was attended by Kim Sang-hyun, Emart24 Marketing Manager, Park Yong-hoon, Secretary General of the Incheon Community Chest of Korea, and SSG Landers pitcher Go Hyo-jun.

The Emart24 Strikeout Donation Campaign is a social contribution program linking Emart24's number '24' with the baseball 'two outs' situation. For every strikeout recorded by an SSG Landers pitcher with runners on base and two outs during home games, 100,000 KRW is donated, and if the inning ends with a strikeout in a bases-loaded, two-out crisis situation, 1.24 million KRW is donated. During this year's professional baseball season, SSG Landers pitchers recorded 161 strikeouts in these situations, accumulating a total of 28.64 million KRW in donations.
