‘Healthy Walk’ was planned to raise social awareness about supporting single mothers and low-income children and adolescents, promote healthy lifestyle habits, and emphasize the importance of environmental protection. Members contribute to health improvement and pollution reduction through step donations, while the company fulfills its social responsibility through the event.


To embody the campaign’s purpose, TheORM adopted a donation method using the step reward app ‘Healthy Clover,’ launched in July. Members walk a certain number of steps daily, and when they reach their step goals, the company donates a fixed amount.


The campaign, held over 10 weeks from October 2 to December 9, saw participation from over 5,000 people. Despite the cold weather, participants actively contributed, achieving a total of 1.26 billion steps, exceeding 150% of the 840 million step goal, raising 110 million KRW in donations. Converted to distance, the steps equal 884,541 km, or 22 times around the Earth, resulting in a carbon reduction effect of 1,892,918 kg.



A representative from TheORM said, "This campaign is an example of all members joining together to spread positive influence so that marginalized neighbors around us can have a warm year-end." They added, "We plan to continue various activities to fulfill corporate social responsibility and deliver warmth to society."
