ATEEZ’s leader, HongJoong, has surpassed a cumulative donation amount of 100 million won, establishing himself as an icon of charitable giving. His warm-hearted actions have continued annually, and this year, he also launched a donation campaign to celebrate his birthday, spreading warmth and inspiration.
HongJoong, in gratitude for the love and support of his fans, engages in birthday donation activities every year, and this year was no exception, as he shared the news of his generous contributions. Notably, he announced his participation, along with ATINY, in the ‘2024 Global 6K for Water Running’ campaign. This campaign aims to raise awareness about the severe lack of clean drinking water by highlighting the struggles of children who walk 6 kilometers daily to obtain water, with the goal of providing access to clean water.
HongJoong expressed his happiness in participating in such a meaningful campaign, stating, “Moments shared with ATINY seem to be remembered longer and more deeply.” His acts of kindness extend beyond this, as he has also contributed to various causes, including a global water project in March and donations for domestic family care youth in May to celebrate Children’s Day. As a result, HongJoong has recorded over 100 million won in cumulative donations and has been inducted into the ‘Bob Pierce Honor Club,’ a group of high-level donors.
Additionally, to communicate with his fans, he is planning a live broadcast on his official YouTube channel at 9 PM (Korean time) on the 7th to commemorate his birthday. His actions have deepened his valuable relationship with fans, and we can look forward to more charitable activities from him in the future. May HongJoong’s consistent acts of kindness remain a beautiful record shared with ATINY.
