On April 1, the Gwangju Community Chest of Korea (hereinafter referred to as Gwangju Love Fruit) announced that it would launch the "Health Donation Campaign" to promote a participatory culture of sharing by combining daily sports and charitable giving.


This campaign has been designed to allow anyone, including ordinary citizens and sports club members, to easily participate in donations through everyday activities such as walking and golf. It will run throughout the year, targeting both the general public and lifestyle sports enthusiasts.


To mark the start of the campaign, Gwangju Love Fruit introduced a participatory donation model through the "Dokyung One Heart Sharing Golf Tournament," which was voluntarily hosted by Dokyung Construction Co., Ltd. in celebration of its 13th anniversary.


Dokyung Construction expanded its traditional golf event, previously held with employees, into a tournament involving the local community to mark its anniversary and to put sharing into practice. The event was operated so that for each hole played, participants donated 1,000 won. With 252 participants playing a full round, this resulted in a donation of 18,000 won per person. In total, around 4.5 million won was raised at the tournament venue through the sharing golf event.


Notably, a total of 63 teams took part in this tournament, adding to its significance. Participants joined in the spirit of sharing by voluntarily hoping for hole-in-ones and contributing to the spread of a healthy donation culture.


Park Jungyeon, CEO of Dokyung Construction and the founding president of Gwangju Chaeum Rotary Club, stated, "Dokyung Construction's 13 years of growth was made possible thanks to the support of the local community. This sharing golf tournament goes beyond a simple sporting event and represents our commitment to supporting our neighbors in need."


No Jinseok, Secretary General of Gwangju Love Fruit, said, "The Health Donation Campaign is a participatory donation model designed so that citizens can naturally take part in sharing in their daily lives. Starting with Dokyung Construction's sharing golf tournament, we plan to expand donation activities linked to various lifestyle sports."



The donations collected through this campaign will be used to support families of Koryoin and migrant workers, nurture aspiring athletes from low-income backgrounds, and provide assistance for living expenses, healthcare, and housing for retired sports professionals from low-income groups.
