[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] NH Nonghyup Bank announced on the 30th that it has delivered over 2,100 tablet PCs worth approximately 350 million KRW to the Nonghyup Foundation to promote non-face-to-face education for underprivileged groups facing educational blind spots due to COVID-19.

The tablet PCs delivered the previous day are 'Galaxy Tab S3' devices that NH Nonghyup Bank had used for business purposes for about three years. They underwent various checks for malfunctions, software updates, and were refurbished to a usable state. During the inspection process, about 500 devices experienced initialization errors due to reasons such as lost passwords, but Samsung Electronics Service, recognizing the valuable cause of the donation, handled these issues free of charge.

Nam Jaewon, Vice President of the Marketing Division, said, “We are pleased to help expand educational opportunities for underprivileged children through the donation of unused assets from Nonghyup Bank,” and added, “We will continue to be a reliable national bank that practices sharing continuously in our community.”
