Corporate and Sister City Workers Targeted with 'Visiting Promotion Activities'
Wando-gun, Jeollanam-do, has raised more than 200 million won through the hometown love donation system this year.
According to the county on the 7th, as of the end of last month, a total of 1,992 people nationwide participated in the hometown love donations, raising a total of 230 million won. As of the end of April last year, the amount raised was 130 million won.
As a result of conducting “visiting promotional activities” targeting hometown associations, people from various walks of life, as well as companies and sister cities, many people donated for the development of Wando.
In particular, Seo Jung-ho, CEO of Ajin Industry Co., Ltd., who was selected as an honorary citizen of the county in 2023, participated as a “Wando Hometown Love Supporter,” donating together with executives and employees and purchasing fresh abalone as a thank-you gift, contributing to the revitalization of the local economy.
An Ajin Industry official said, “Through Wando-gun, I learned in detail about the hometown love donation system, including tax deduction benefits,” and added, “I will participate in promotion so that more people can donate to Wando, the hometown of my heart.”
Meanwhile, Wando-gun plans to focus all efforts on promoting the system to company employees by linking with thank-you gift suppliers following visits to Kumho Tire, Korea Health Management Association, and Daewoo Electronics Parts.
