[Asia Economy Reporter Seomideum] Yes24 bookstore donated 50 million KRW raised through the 'Help Ukrainian Children Campaign' to the UNICEF Korea Committee on the 25th.

Yes24 conducted a YES Point donation campaign from March 14 to April 14 to help Ukrainian children endangered by the armed conflict. Members could donate up to 1,000 YES Points they held, and Yes24 pledged to convert the points into cash and donate the full amount.

As a result of the one-month campaign, a total of 16,580,530 points were donated by 17,595 enthusiastic Yes24 members. Yes24 converted the points into cash and added its own donation, delivering a total fund of 50 million KRW to the UNICEF Korea Committee's fundraising activities for helping Ukrainian children on the 25th.

At the non-face-to-face fund delivery ceremony, Kim Seok-hwan, CEO of Yes24, said, "Many Ukrainian children have lost their lives or suffered serious injuries due to the prolonged armed conflict and are enduring mental trauma. I hope the precious donations collected through our members' participation will be delivered well and provide warm support to the children deeply wounded in body and mind by the war."
