The Korea Real Estate Board announced on August 20 that the 'Double Donation' campaign, jointly promoted with iM Financial Group, achieved its target amount of 73 million won two weeks ahead of schedule.

Launched to commemorate the 80th anniversary of Liberation, the campaign saw participation from over 8,300 online users who donated 36.95 million won through Naver Happy Bean. The Korea Real Estate Board and iM Financial Group matched this amount, resulting in a total of 73.9 million won being raised. This is the second time the campaign has been held, following last year, and it has once again exceeded its target.

The donations will be used to support independence patriots, national merit recipients, and military personnel, as well as Ethiopian veterans who participated in the Korean War. The Korea Real Estate Board is also concurrently carrying out an ODA project to establish a large-scale real estate appraisal system tailored for Ethiopia.

In addition to this donation, the Korea Real Estate Board continues its social contribution activities, including installing renewable energy facilities in social welfare institutions, supporting star products in the Daegu and Gyeongbuk regions, and providing scholarships for young people preparing for self-reliance.

Euncheol Yoo, Vice President of the Korea Real Estate Board, stated, "It is a very meaningful achievement that the donation campaign, held together with the public to mark the 80th anniversary of Liberation, exceeded its target in such a short time. As a public institution, we will continue to fulfill our social responsibilities and carry out sharing activities for mutual growth with the public."
