# Solv Protocol Co-Founder Ryan Chow Donates 2 Million KRW to Aid South Korea Wildfire Recovery Ryan Chow, co-founder of Solv Protocol ($SOLV), has donated a total of 2 million KRW to support recovery efforts following the devastating wildfires in South Korea. On March 27 (local time), Chow took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to express his concern over the severity of the wildfires, stating that he became fully aware of the situation through a post by Korean crypto influencer “CoinGachiInvestment” and subsequent discussions with his Korean colleagues, which led him to take action. # An Initial Donation Inspired by Colleague's Appeal Chow shared that he was deeply moved by his Korean colleague's statement, "My homeland, South Korea, is in danger," which spurred him to make an initial donation of 1 million KRW to Hope Bridge Korea Disaster Relief Association. A situation report released the following day revealed that the wildfire had devastated an area of 52,300 hectares—an increase of 9 percent within just 24 hours. The disaster led to 65 injuries and forced the evacuation of approximately 10,000 people. In response to these alarming figures, Chow made an additional donation of 1 million KRW to bolster support for firefighting personnel and on-site emergency responders. # Raising Awareness Through Action Chow expressed his belief in the power of raising awareness, noting, "This amount is merely a drop in the ocean compared to what has been lost, but I believe increasing awareness can bring strength." He also mentioned that his Korean colleagues compiled a list of verified donation channels, including Hope Bridge, for those looking to contribute to the cause. Chow invited anyone interested in lending help to reach out for further information. # A Message of Solidarity and Support Beyond the financial contributions, Chow underscored his solidarity with South Korean wildfire response forces and victims. "Solv Protocol can’t make it rain, but we’re ready to join as one of the many raindrops," said Chow, signaling the company’s unwavering support for the country’s recovery efforts. Meanwhile, a Korean employee at Solv Protocol emphasized the significance of individual contributions during such crises, saying, "Even a single bucket of water can make a big difference when facing wildfires." The employee also urged for continued attention and sustained support from the community. The wildfires have posed a critical challenge to South Korea, and efforts like Chow's serve not only as financial aid but also as a rallying cry for more collective action and global solidarity.
