Proceeds From Sales to Support War Veterans and Marginalized Local Communities

The Korea Federation of SMEs and the SME Sharing Foundation announced that they held the opening ceremony for the "2026 SME Sharing Festa" at the Korea Federation of SMEs building in Yeouido, Seoul, on July 8.

The Sharing Festa, held through July 9, is an event where 150,000 products donated by SMEs—including daily necessities, children's books, school supplies, and accessories—are sold to citizens at affordable and reasonable prices. The proceeds are used to support underprivileged groups.

The opening ceremony featured a presentation of appreciation plaques to major sponsors, as well as a sponsorship agreement ceremony for welfare facilities. In addition, the Festa included a program in which executives and volunteers from the Korea Federation of SMEs assembled food kits for veterans who contributed to national defense and patriotism.

Naver Pay, a sponsor, offered an additional 5,000 points to those who made purchases of 30,000 won or more using Naver Pay, while Home&Shopping donated broadcast products in collaboration with its partner companies. Furthermore, there was an auction program selling cherished items from Tak Jaehoon, Soyoumi, and Kim Nahi—models for the Yellow Umbrella Mutual Aid Fund—as well as memorabilia from mountaineer Um Hong-gil and signed CDs from famous celebrities.

Kim Kimoon, Chairman of the Korea Federation of SMEs, stated, "We will continue to do our best to publicize the good deeds of donating SMEs and to spread a culture of warmth and sharing even further."
