The Korea Financial Investment Association said on the 10th that it delivered school supplies worth 20 million won to community child centers nationwide in cooperation with ChildFund Korea.
This support was executed using the Credit Counseling & Recovery Service (CCRS) "New Hope Healing Fund." The fund is a social contribution resource created with the association's and member firms' corporate card points and donations.
A total of 1,000 school supply sets will be distributed to 16 community child centers in Seoul and other regions and will be delivered sequentially to the children who use each center.
At the handover ceremony, Kim Jin-eok, head of external policy at the financial investment association, said, "It is important to make children feel that they are not alone and that this is a warm world with people cheering them on," adding, "We will continue to firmly support the dreams of children, the future saplings, through assistance that reflects on-the-ground needs."
The association plans to continue social contribution activities in 2026 to realize a warm capital market, including support for education for children and teenagers, based on solidarity with the financial investment industry.
