The donation aims to support vulnerable young women in South Korea.
Hearts2 Hearts plans to continue expanding their positive influence.
The group Hearts2 Hearts celebrated their first anniversary with a significant donation. On February 23, the international development NGO, Gi Foundation, announced that Hearts2 Hearts donated 50 million won in the name of their official fan club, 'Hachu', to support vulnerable young women and adolescents in South Korea. This initiative aims to help those facing financial difficulties to maintain a safe and healthy environment in their daily lives. The group expressed their desire to share the love and support they've received thus far, leading to this commendable act of charity. With the donated funds, Gi Foundation plans to provide menstrual kits composed of various sizes of sanitary pads, feminine hygiene products, and heat packs. Hearts2 Hearts shared their wish to spread the love they received from 'Hachu', articulating a commitment to being an artist that inspiringly engages with their fans and the community.
Gi Foundation’s representative, Park Chung-gwan, expressed deep gratitude for Hearts2 Hearts’s generous contribution, stating that the donation would ensure the basic rights and wellness of vulnerable young women are respected and supported. Made up of eight members—Jiwoo, Carmen, Yuha, Stella, Jueun, Einah, Ian, and Yeon—Hearts2 Hearts debuted under SM Entertainment on February 24, 2025, with their initial single 'The Chase'. They recently released a new single titled 'RUDE!' on February 20, continuing their vibrant activities.
Hearts2 Hearts' recent donation transcends mere charity, contributing to the awareness of issues faced by women. The menstrual hygiene difficulties experienced by economically disadvantaged youth are often overlooked, and this donation aims to foster a safer environment for these individuals. By facilitating more comfortable and secure daily lives for women, Hearts2 Hearts can indeed make a meaningful impact, which in turn enhances the positive reputation of the group.
Additionally, the group’s commitment to extending their positive influence indicates a willingness to strengthen their relationship with fans. This engagement allows fans to interact with the artist on a more profound level, reinforcing their bond. Such initiatives are vital in solidifying their presence within the music industry, as well as enhancing their public image.
Moreover, Hearts2 Hearts' donation aligns well with AdSense policies and the pursuit of social values. This example showcases how artists can leverage their influence positively, with a donation made in collaboration with fans potentially fostering significant societal change beyond just economic support.
