Following singer Lee Chan-won, his fan club ‘Chance’ also donated money to help with wildfire relief efforts.

The Hope Bridge National Disaster Relief Association (Chairman Song Pil-ho) announced on the 1st that Lee Chan-won‘s fan club ‘Chance’ donated 122,290,000 won in wildfire relief efforts. Following singer Lee Chan-won’s donation of 100 million won on the 25th for wildfire relief efforts in his hometown of Ulju, fans have joined in on the good deed.

‘Chance’‘s donation will be used to support recovery and revitalization of daily life, including emergency relief, provision of daily necessities, and operation of temporary shelters for residents in wildfire-stricken areas such as Ulsan, Gyeongbuk, and Gyeongnam.

This is not the first time that a fandom has done good deeds. This is already the fourth donation in response to a national disaster, having previously donated 280 million won to the floods in 2022, the East Coast wildfires, and the floods in 2023. This donation brings the total to 400 million won.

Members of Lee Chan-won’s fan club Chance said, “Fan Club Chance is also raising funds to spread hope through donations, following the singer‘s example of love and sharing.” They added, “We want to share in the pain of the displaced people who are grieving and cheer them on, even if only a little.”

Hope Bridge is currently providing relief supplies worth over 440,000 items, including relief kits, shelter partitions, blankets, daily necessities, bottled water, and food to areas affected by the wildfires. They are also continuing various field activities, such as laundry support in shelters and meal support from a ‘food truck’ for firefighters and field firefighters.
