Dongyang Life Insurance Launches Campaign to Support Treatment for Pediatric Cancer Patients

On the 27th, Dongyang Life announced that its executives and employees conducted a campaign to make pouches for Hickman catheters to help treat pediatric cancer patients.

[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Hyung-gil] Dongyang Life Insurance announced on the 27th that its employees conducted a campaign to make Hickman catheter pouches to help treat pediatric cancer patients.

The Hickman catheter is a rubber tube connected to a vein for drug infusion and blood collection during chemotherapy. It remains connected to the vein 24 hours a day, making hygienic management extremely important. Although a pouch for clean storage is essential, there are no commercially available ones, so patients' families have to make them by hand with difficulty each time.

Dongyang Life Insurance employees and financial consultants (FCs) made about 300 Hickman pouches through the Hickman pouch-making campaign and plan to deliver them to the Korea Leukemia Children's Foundation. These pouches will be distributed to more than 60 pediatric cancer patients.

A Dongyang Life Insurance official said, "It was a very meaningful time for the Guardian Angel families to learn about the importance of Hickman pouches and to contribute even a little." He added, "We hope the children complete their treatment safely as soon as possible and regain their health."
