[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Hyung-gil] On the 9th, Orange Life held a donation ceremony for the International Vaccine Institute (IVI) with participants of the 'Orange Life Champions Trophy Park In-bee Invitational' at Blue One Dianos CC in Gyeongju, the company announced on the 10th.


Jung Moon-guk, CEO of Orange Life, Lee Byung-geon, Chairman of the IVI Korea Support Association, Park In-bee, and 26 professional players representing South Korea participated.


The participating players donated 60 million KRW, equivalent to 5% of their individual prize money, and Orange Life, the title sponsor and co-host of the tournament, added another 60 million KRW as a matching grant, making a total donation of 120 million KRW.


The International Vaccine Institute is the world's only international organization dedicated to developing vaccines to prevent infectious diseases in children of developing countries.

As a subsidiary of Shinhan Financial Group, the top financial group in Korea, Orange Life will fulfill its social responsibilities accordingly."
