What Is the Good Shop Program?
‘Good Shop’ is a sharing-culture initiative run by the Community Chest of Korea (사회복지공동모금회) for small business owners, self-employed merchants, and franchise operators.
It designates stores that regularly donate at least 30,000 won each month via automatic CMS bank transfer to help neighbors in need.
