This year, the city selected a designated donation project for the first time. The project aims to support households vulnerable to care needs, specifically targeting middle-aged single-person households living in permanent rental apartments in Seoksa 3 District and Hyoja 8 Complex. The city plans to operate customized health care programs such as mental health counseling, chronic disease management, and self-help group meetings. The project will be officially launched once the fundraising goal of 30 million won is reached.

During the event period, among those who donate at least 100,000 won to Chuncheon City's "Suicide and Solitary Death Prevention Regional Health Care for Vulnerable Areas" project through the Hometown Love e-Eum website, one person will be randomly selected to receive a Korean beef set (worth 150,000 won), and 30 people will receive a Korean pork set (worth 30,000 won). Winners will be notified individually by text message on October 20.

A Chuncheon City official stated, "We hope that donations will bring warmth to households vulnerable to care needs and that donors will have a meaningful Chuseok holiday with their families. We also expect that the Hometown Love Donation program, which offers tax deduction benefits and a variety of return gifts, will help spread a culture of sharing in the region."
