Suwon Special City Adopts Private Platform 'WeGive' for Convenient Hometown Love Donation

Suwon Special City (Mayor Lee Jae-jun) has adopted the private platform 'WeGive' to expand the online participation base for the Hometown Love Donation program.

Suwon City plans to add a private platform to the existing online donation channel 'Hometown Love eeum' to enhance donors' accessibility and convenience of use, and actively promote Suwon City's Hometown Love Donation program through various online promotional channels.

WeGive is a private platform specialized in the Hometown Love Donation program, supporting fundraising and reception of donations, registration and consultation of return gifts, and customized advertising, promotion, and marketing.

Suwon City plans to expand online exposure of return gifts featuring Suwon's characteristics through the private platform and to contribute to expanding sales channels for return gift suppliers and revitalizing the regional economy.

Suwon City's Hometown Love Donation can be made through the online 'Hometown Love eeum' and 'WeGive' or at Nonghyup Bank branches nationwide.

The Hometown Love Donation program is a system in which individuals donate to local governments other than the municipality of their registered residential address. Donors receive tax deduction benefits and return gifts corresponding to up to 30% of the donation amount. Donation funds are used for projects to promote resident welfare and regional development.

A Suwon City official said, "With the adoption of the private platform, donors will be able to more easily access Suwon's Hometown Love Donation program and return gifts," adding "We will operate it faithfully so that donations are used meaningfully for the region."
