Altos IBK Corporate Bank Women's Volleyball Team Donates 'Spikes of Love'

The Altos IBK Corporate Bank Women's Volleyball Team is launching a 'Spikes of Love' donation campaign during the 2011-2012 V League season.

The Altos volleyball team plans to accumulate 50,000 won for each point scored during the V League and donate a total of approximately 10 million won to the underprivileged in Hwaseong City.

According to the team, as of January 9, when the first round of the 2011-2012 V League concluded, Altos had scored a total of 1,247 points, accumulating 62 million won at 50,000 won per point. The team expects the total donation to reach approximately 100 million won by the end of the league.

A city official stated, "We are grateful for the Altos IBK Corporate Bank Women's Volleyball Team's 'Spikes of Love' donation," and added, "We will cheer together with our citizens for Altos, our city's representative volleyball team, to achieve good results in the V League."
