'JB Merry Together Market' Successfully Concludes

JB Financial Group announced that it held the year-end charity bazaar, 'JB Merry Together Market,' for immigrants at the Ansan Multicultural Harmony Park in Gyeonggi Province on November 30.


This event was part of the 'Warm Winter Support for Immigrants' initiative, where JB Financial Group employees voluntarily donated winter clothing and daily necessities to share with immigrants. It also served as an opportunity to engage with the local community through various cultural experience programs.


The bazaar featured winter clothing such as padded jackets, coats, and jackets, as well as daily goods donated by JB Financial Group employees. Immigrants were able to purchase coupons and fill reusable bags with their chosen items in the 'Kilo Market' section, and select high-value donated goods at fixed prices in the 'Heart to Heart Shop.'

At the venue, participants could take part in the 'Making a Global Tree' activity using traditional patterns and colors from various countries, and create ornaments representing different cultures to hang on a large tree. Staff from Jeonbuk Bank's Ansan Foreign Lounge provided guidance and interpretation in immigrants' native languages, while the immigrant health association 'WeFriends' participated to offer suicide prevention education and health information.


The event also featured performances, including a Nanta percussion show by the Ansan Multicultural Family Support Center's children's team 'Charisma Nanta Team,' and a comedy circus performance titled 'MUT.' In addition, a food cafe and prize draw events were organized to enhance participants' satisfaction.


Proceeds from this bazaar will be matched with company funds and donated to immigrant organizations in Ansan.



Choi Jinseok, Executive Director of External Cooperation at JB Financial Group, stated, "Thanks to the voluntary donations of our employees and the cooperation of local organizations such as the Ansan Multicultural Family Support Center, Ansan Village Making Support Center, Culture75, and Culture World Gori, we were able to hold such a meaningful event. We will continue to organize sharing events where immigrants and local residents can come together."
