韩国韩联社与救助儿童会于5月2日在首尔汝矣岛公园共同举办了一场迷你马拉松筹款活动，旨在支持移居劳工的子女。约3000名参与者（包括儿童）完成了4.2公里的赛程，以帮助面临医疗和教育困难的儿童。该活动始于2011年，迄今已吸引约11万人参与。
此次活动在首尔西部的汝矣岛公园举行，吸引了约3000名包括儿童在内的参与者，他们通过跑步来筹集资金并提高社会对那些在医疗、教育及其他儿童服务获取方面面临困难的移居背景儿童的关注。
韩联社社长兼首席执行官黄大一通过执行董事金在宏宣读的贺词表示：“今天的马拉松不仅仅是为了跑步。你们今天的倾情投入与参与，将是对那些远方挣扎中的孩子们莫大的鼓励。”
韩国救助儿童会首席执行官郑泰英承诺，将确保“所有儿童都能在无歧视的环境下得到保护，无论背景如何，都能健康成长”。
此次马拉松还在大田和釜山等其他四个城市同步举行，并将在10月前陆续在11个地区开展。自2011年启动以来，该活动已累计吸引约11万人参加。
