Kpop boy band BIGBANG has partnered with the United Nations Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) to promote its "Special Days Campaign" as a way to thank their fans for supporting the boy group for the past 10 years.

BIGBANG's agency YG Entertainment made the announcement regarding the band's collaboration with UNICEF on Tuesday: "BIGBANG has been doing its part in various charity campaigns to celebrate its anniversary every year. This project with UNICEF is a way to show appreciation for all of the support from fans over the past 10 years, and to remember the group's upcoming anniversary in the most meaningful way possible," as quoted by Korea Herald.

Interested participants can take part in the organization's "Special Days Campaign" by uploading photos of themselves during special occasions including but not limited to birthdays, anniversaries, wedding ceremonies and other events on social media channels Facebook and Instagram.

"Special Days Campaign" intends to remind people to always celebrate special occasions by giving to others, Korea Joongang Daily reported. The campaign by UNICEF will run from August 16 to September 30. According to the news agency, BIGBANG decided to collaborate with UNICEF for this campaign as the Kpop band is celebrating their 10th year anniversary on August 19.

Meanwhile, BIGBANG has prepared a series of shows for the celebration of their 10th anniversary. The Kpop band is set to hold "0.TO.10" concert at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on August 20.

Aside from that, BIGBANG recently opened an exhibition called "BIGBANG10 Exhibition: A to Z," which features the band's journey for the past 10 years. The exhibition opened last August 5 and will run until October 30.
