  "summary": "Samsung has launched a new charity program called Sharing Stores, which transforms everyday spending near its workplaces into community giving for vulnerable children and teenagers. The initiative, which began on November 2, involved over 108,000 employees from 23 Samsung affiliates participating in donations, blood drives, and volunteer activities during a two-week Sharing Week campaign. The program now operates at 22 workplaces across 17 Samsung affiliates, including Samsung Electronics, Samsung Electro-Mechanics, Samsung Display, and Samsung SDI, with 370 local businesses participating. Through Sharing Stores, restaurants and cafes near Samsung workplaces donate a portion of their sales to support disadvantaged youth, with Samsung raising an additional 300 million won for the cause.",
