The Small Business Central Association and the Small Business Love Sharing Foundation announced the opening ceremony of the '2026 Small Business Sharing Festa' on July 8 in Yeouido, Seoul.
This event features the sale of 150,000 items donated by small businesses, including household goods, children's books, school supplies, and accessories, with proceeds aimed at supporting disadvantaged communities.
During the event, employees of the Small Business Central Association and volunteers participated in a program to create food kits for veterans who have served the country.
As a sponsor, Naver Pay offered an additional 5,000 points for purchases over 30,000 won, while Home & Shopping contributed by donating products from its vendors to promote a culture of sharing among small businesses.
The event also included an auction featuring personal items from popular figures, including Tak Jae-hoon, So Yu-mi, and Kim Na-hee, as well as signed CDs from famous celebrities.
Earlier, the Small Business Love Sharing Foundation engaged in a volunteer activity in May at a free meal service in Dong-gu, Daejeon, providing warm meals to those in need.
Kim Gi-moon, president of the Small Business Central Association, expressed gratitude to the small business representatives who participated in the donations, stating, 'I would like to thank the small business leaders who contributed to this festa. We will continue to promote the good deeds of donating small businesses and strive to spread a warm culture of sharing.'
