“I hope this donation will help children who are not receiving treatment due to difficult family circumstances so that they can grow healthy & bright” – Suga
BTS’ Suga celebrated his 28th birthday on March 9, 2021 with a charity campaign. He donated 100 million won ($88K USD) to cancer patients in Keimyung University Dongsan Hospital in Daegu. Suga wanted to help children who are unable to receive proper treatment.
Army’s around the world were inspired by Suga’s generosity and participated in their own campaigns. It’s obvious that BTS fans are supportive not just with their music career, but also in their advocacies.
A fund raising in Italy for “Change Climate Change” raised 260€ for Suga’s birthday.

BTS along with their loyal fans have a history of holding out a helping hand. In 2019, an Army donated to @OneInAnARMY for their Suga Day campaign. The page is a fundraising initiative run by ARMY volunteers. They organize monthly charity projects in honor of BTS.
