[Asia Economy Reporter Ki Ha-young] KB Kookmin Card announced on the 9th that it has gifted school bags to children from low-income families about to enter elementary school for the seventh consecutive year.


On the afternoon of the previous day, KB Kookmin Card delivered 2,200 school bag gift sets worth 150 million won at the Korean Buddhist History and Culture Memorial Hall in Jongno-gu, Seoul, to children preparing to enter elementary school next month.


The gift sets, which include school bags, auxiliary pockets, stationery, and congratulatory postcards for school admission, will be distributed in February to children from financially struggling families such as grandparent-headed families, single-parent families, and multicultural families through local children's centers and welfare centers.


Since 2015, KB Kookmin Card has jointly produced school bag gift sets for children from low-income families about to enter elementary school with the foundation 'Areumdaun Donghaeng' and has delivered them to more than 12,700 children to date.



A KB Kookmin Card official stated, "We plan to continue various sponsorship activities so that children in blind spots of care and welfare are not neglected and can grow into healthy members of society under social care."
