Sony Donates 100 Noise-Canceling Headphones to Underprivileged Students

Donation of Wireless Headphones to Help Underprivileged Students Improve Concentration in Online Classes

[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] Sony Korea donated 100 wireless noise-canceling headphones WH-CH710N to children in foster families and welfare centers in Seoul, in collaboration with the Green Umbrella Children’s Foundation.

Sony Korea provided the headphones to help children attending remote online classes during the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic improve their study efficiency even in noisy environments.

The Sony wireless noise-canceling headphones WH-CH710N analyze various everyday noises encountered naturally during study, work, or daily life and block them appropriately according to the situation. Weighing only 223g with a slim design, students carrying many items can easily carry them without burden.

Okura Kikuo, CEO of Sony Korea, said, “Recently, as the academic environment has rapidly changed due to various issues, many students are having difficulty concentrating on remote classes. We hope Sony’s wireless noise-canceling headphones will help reduce surrounding noises that interfere with learning and allow students to immerse themselves in their studies.”

The Children’s Foundation stated, “Sony Korea and the Children’s Foundation have maintained a partnership since 2011 to provide various educational opportunities to underprivileged children and have continuously worked to help children cultivate the qualities required by changing times. We expect that through this donation, children continuing their studies via remote classes will be able to build a better learning environment.”
