Employees of Hecto Group are walking to raise funds for pediatric cancer treatment.
 
Hecto Group announced on November 12 that it will hold its employee walking program, "Ddukbok Ddukbok Challenge Season 7," until November 29 to support children with cancer. Approximately 840 employees will participate in the 28-day challenge, walking 8,000 steps each day under the theme "Walk, Connect, Share!" The company plans to donate a total of 25 million won for the treatment of children with cancer through this challenge.
 
Now in its seventh year, the Ddukbok Ddukbok Challenge has focused on fostering walking habits among employees and enhancing interactions among colleagues. This season, the initiative has expanded to include charitable contributions. For every participant, the company will donate 30,000 won, regardless of their level of participation. The donations will be sent to the Korea Childhood Cancer Foundation through the sharing program "Hecto Steps Together" to be used for the treatment of children with cancer.
 
Yoo Joo-song, head of the Organizational Culture Department at Hecto Group, stated, "I hope that each employee's steps will lead to meaningful sharing beyond just activities with colleagues. Through the Ddukbok Ddukbok Challenge, we will continue to foster a culture of communication and sharing across subsidiaries and departments while building healthy habits together."
 
Previously, Hecto Group has engaged in various social contribution activities. The company conducted its 10th "HECTO&" blood donation campaign for employees over two days from August 31 to September 1.
 
"HECTO&" is a campaign that promotes "Sharing Life with Hecto," where employees participate in blood donation to practice life-sharing as part of Hecto Group's social contribution efforts.
