‘Making Myself Valuable Through Donation · Making Haman Valuable’
Haman-gun, Gyeongnam Province, announced on the 5th that it held the unveiling ceremony of the Hope 2025 Sharing Campaign 'Love Thermometer Tower' and took the first step toward spreading a culture of sharing during the year-end and New Year holidays with a goal of 189,005,000 KRW.
The 'Love Thermometer Tower' rises by 1℃ each time 1% of the target donation amount is collected.
Haman-gun, under the slogan "Make myself valuable through donation, make Haman valuable," has set the focused fundraising period until January 31 next year and is conducting donation collection activities through the county office and eup/myeon offices.
The unveiling ceremony was held in the lobby on the first floor of the county office, attended by Jo Geun-je, the governor of Haman-gun, Lee Man-ho, chairman of the Haman County Council, Kang Ki-cheol, chairman of the Gyeongsangnam-do Community Chest of Korea, donors, sharing leaders, related officials, residents, and staff. The event encouraged participation in donations through activities such as attaching love fruits, donation relay, and a song filled with the hearts of children from Chilseo Daycare Center.
On-site, the Community Chest set up a donation reception desk to support fundraising activities, making it easy for passing residents to participate in donations.
Earlier, at the Sharing Leader plaque awarding ceremony, three individuals joined as sharing leaders after making general donations of over 1 million KRW in 2024: Lee Hak-soon, CEO of Ara Bunsik, Baek Su-jeong, CEO of Ara Jeong, and Lee Kwang-han, CEO of Kwaejina Chingching.
Additionally, donations collected by children from Supssoknara Daycare Center in the area were delivered, and at Chilseo Daycare Center, children cultivated a vegetable garden and sold the harvested crops along with hairpins handmade by staff at a flea market, adding warmth to the fundraising efforts.
Governor Jo Geun-je said, "I sincerely thank everyone who brightened this occasion today. I hope that during the campaign period, the love thermometer will exceed the goal of 200 degrees, making Haman-gun a warm place through sharing. I wish everyone a warm year-end and New Year while practicing sharing."
