The 'Santa Expedition Team' is Green Umbrella's representative year-end campaign that started in 2007 to spread the joy of sharing and the culture of donation, marking its 18th year this year.

Anyone, including citizens and companies, can participate and sponsor, and the funds raised during the period are used for gifts to fulfill the year-end wishes of children from low-income families.

At the appointment ceremony, children from daycare centers participated by reading wish letters previously received from children in low-income families, conveying their desire to receive gifts from Santa.

Lee Dong-hwan, Mayor of Goyang Special City, appointed as the representative Santa, expressed his gratitude, saying, "Thanks to the Green Umbrella Gyeonggi Regional Headquarters, it seems that everyone will have a warm year-end without any children being left out in the city this winter."

He continued, "We will do our best to improve child welfare so that the children in our city can grow up healthy, nurturing their dreams and hopes regardless of their economic circumstances," and added, "I ask for the citizens' great interest in the Santa Expedition Team so that Goyang can become a city where children are happy."
