BTS Jungkook’s birthday on September 1 was marked by a heartwarming blood donation campaign organized by Filipino fans, continuing their tradition of spreading kindness for the third consecutive year.
The Philippine Red Cross shared on their official account that Jungkook’s fan group, Jungkookies, once again made a big difference with their “Golden X Unity: United to Save Lives” blood donation drive.
Held on August 24 at the PRC Logistics and Multipurpose Center, the campaign collected an impressive 143 units of blood between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. This year’s drive brings the total number of blood units collected over three years to 401.
The Philippine Red Cross applauded the fans, noting, “The event celebrating Jungkook’s 27th birthday was a testament to compassion and community spirit. Fans turned their love for Jungkook into a life-saving initiative, showing that fandoms can be a powerful force for good.”
Beyond the blood donation, Jungkook’s Filipino fanbases, ‘Golden Alliance Philippines’ and ‘JK Daily,’ teamed up with the HERO Foundation to provide school supplies to families of fallen soldiers in Mindanao.
Another fanbase, ‘JK Voting Team,’ donated in Jungkook’s name to the Animal Kingdom Foundation (AKF), which rescues and rehabilitates abused animals.
Jungkook’s fan account ‘JK Sinner’ contributed essential school supplies and nutritious meals to 55 students at an orphanage in Cebu, adding to the birthday celebrations in a meaningful way.
In Japan, Jungkook’s fan club ‘Jungkook Japan’ donated 15 million won worth of pork to the Green Umbrella Children’s Foundation in partnership with the Korean Pork Producers Association. The international fan club ‘Golden JK Universe’ also made a difference by donating over $1,000 to four charity organizations worldwide, including the Korean Childhood Leukemia Foundation, the UK Children’s Cancer Foundation, the Mexican Childhood Cancer Association, and the Montevideo Foundation in Uruguay.
Jungkook’s fans continue to make a global impact on his birthday, turning their admiration into actions that truly matter.
