[Asia Economy Reporter Kwangho Lee] Jin Ok-dong, CEO of Shinhan Bank, known for her special interest in children, has rolled up her sleeves to support abused children.

On the 24th, Shinhan Bank announced the launch of the "Companion Project" to provide continuous attention and long-term support for abused children.

This project supports vehicles and fuel expenses for the transportation of children at 76 abused children’s shelters nationwide. Named the "Companion Project" to reflect sincerity in providing practical and steady support rather than one-time aid for abused children, it will be carried out over the next three years on a long-term basis.

Through a preliminary survey of abused children’s shelters nationwide, Shinhan Bank identified that support for vehicles and fuel expenses for medical institution visits for treating aftereffects of abuse and for school commuting was most urgently needed. Accordingly, vehicle support will be provided to 26 shelters, and fuel expenses to 76 shelters.

This project was planned with CEO Jin’s strong social contribution will, given her high interest in children. CEO Jin stated, “I want to support children’s education through donations so that the difficult economic environment does not limit their dreams,” and it is known that she has personally donated over 100 million won since her inauguration in 2019.

A Shinhan Bank official said, “Through this project, we will spare no effort to provide continuous support so that children do not lose their dreams and grow up healthy,” adding, “We will continue systematic, field-centered support to provide practical help.”
