Shinhan Bank Conducts Charity Auction of Uniforms Worn by 47 KBO All-Stars

[Asia Economy Reporter Kwangho Lee] Shinhan Bank announced on the 19th that it will hold the '2021 KBO All-Star Charity Auction in Sol Baseball' event together with the KBO to repay the support of baseball fans and help neighbors in need.

Shinhan Bank, the title sponsor of the KBO League, and the KBO prepared this event to ease the disappointment of the All-Star Game, which could not be held due to COVID-19, and to thank baseball fans who continue to support the KBO League despite games being held without spectators.

This event will be conducted through the pre-events 'Sol Baseball Heart Event' and 'KBO All-Star Uniform Charity Auction.' Both events are open to anyone who signs up as a Shinhan Sol member, even without a Shinhan Bank account, and can participate on the 'Sol Baseball' event page within the Shinhan Sol app.

The Sol Baseball Heart Event is an event where Shinhan Bank donates 10 won for each customer participation. Customers can participate once a day until the 29th of this month and will receive hearts for participation. Customers can use the hearts they receive to enter an instant lottery to win one of 47 commemorative balls autographed by the 47 2021 KBO All-Star and Rising Star players or random My Shinhan Points ranging from 3 to 1000 points.

The KBO All-Star Uniform Charity Auction will be held twice on the 21st and 28th, where customers who submit the highest bid for each of the 93 autographed uniforms of the 47 2021 KBO All-Star and Rising Star players will be granted the right to purchase the uniform.

Shinhan Bank will donate all the funds accumulated from the Sol Baseball Heart Event and the proceeds from the charity auction to the Korean Red Cross, and the donations will be delivered to neighbors struggling due to COVID-19.

A Shinhan Bank official said, "We prepared this event to repay the support of baseball fans who love the KBO League and to help neighbors facing difficulties due to COVID-19," adding, "As the title sponsor of the KBO League, we will continue to communicate with baseball fans through content that provides various benefits and fun."
