Ashurion Korea Donates 10 Million Won Through Employee Walking Challenge
Ashurion Korea (CEO Baek Seung-heum) donated 10 million KRW raised through an employee walking challenge on November 28 to the NGO Good Neighbors Seoul Regional Headquarters.
The walking challenge was held over five weeks with the goal of walking 10 million steps, and about 80 employees collectively achieved 17 million steps, far exceeding the target.
This is the second year Ashurion Korea has practiced sharing with Good Neighbors through the steps of its employees. The 10 million KRW donated last year was used for psychological treatment costs and purchasing heating kits for vulnerable children, and this year it will be sponsored for a book support project at a children's hospital in Seoul.
Ashurion Korea, as part of Ashurion's global charity program 'Compassion Forward,' continuously provides financial support and donations in cooperation with local community partners and supports employees' participation in various volunteer activities.
In April, employees delivered homemade bread to vulnerable groups nearby through the 'Sharing Love Bread Volunteer' event at the Jongno-gu Korean Red Cross Central Volunteer Center. Also, this month, 4.5 million KRW was donated to Dongmyeong Child Welfare Center to support programs helping pre-elementary school children adapt to school.
Baek Seung-heum, CEO of Ashurion Korea, said, "I am pleased that we could practice meaningful sharing again this year through the passionate participation of our employees," and added, "We will continue to contribute to the local community through various support and cooperation."
Hong Seon-gyo, head of Good Neighbors Seoul Regional Headquarters, expressed gratitude, saying, "We thank Ashurion Korea employees for their consistent sharing," and added, "We hope this donation will help many children nurture bigger dreams and hopes."
