On July 25, 2024, the 'Supporters DAY' event, organized by Save the Children, took place. 

This event gathered members of relevant institutions and sponsors from the Gyeongnam and Busan areas to share the 2024 projects and discuss the value of giving and various other topics. Sangwoo-nim (Vice Chairman of the CTR Group) attended as the representative of the sponsoring company.

At the event, a donation ceremony for the Planting Three Red Trees Campaign was held. CTR Group provided sponsorship funds to support climate crisis response and to protect children and residents who are losing their homes. This sponsorship will be primarily used to plant mangrove trees to help communities in Vietnam dealing with sea level rise and land erosion issues.

What is the Planting Three Red Trees Campaign?

The Campaign is an environmental protection initiative organized by Save the Children. It is a campaign that raises awareness and responds to climate crisis issues through tree planting. This activity aims to protect the homes of children and residents threatened by climate change and supports education and livelihoods for a safe life.

In Vietnam Nam Khan, where frequent heavy rains and severe land erosion due to the climate crisis are critical issues, the campaign focuses on planting mangrove trees to purify pollutants, stabilize the soil, and restore the lost mangrove forests.
