The donation will be used to provide meals to children who have difficulty having proper meals due to the absence of guardians or economic hardships through Save the Children's 'Domestic Child Meal Support Project.' Previously, 11st Street participated in the '2023 Snowflake Companion Festival,' hosted by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups and organized by the Small and Medium Business Distribution Center, starting from the 4th.

Ko Gwang-il, Head of Sales Planning at 11st Street, said, "The number of children nationwide in need of meal support reached approximately 300,000 as of last year, making the protection of children's right to health an area requiring social attention and assistance," adding, "We hope to be of some help to children who need care and support."
