Hi Investment & Securities Donates Braille Cards for Visually Impaired Children View original image


[Asia Economy Reporter Park Ji-hwan] Hi Investment & Securities announced on the 22nd that on the 20th, in celebration of the '41st Disabled Persons Day,' it delivered braille cards and sponsorship funds for visually impaired children to Seoul Hyojeong School located in Gangbuk-gu, Seoul.


Braille cards are play-type learning tools that help visually impaired infants and toddlers study basic braille words. They feature braille and pictures printed in relief on a soft material, combined with hand stitching, allowing visually impaired children to read them safely.


Considering the difficulties of group volunteer activities, Hi Investment & Securities planned a non-face-to-face social contribution by producing braille cards. Employees who voluntarily participated made the cards at their homes, preparing a total of 360 cards to join the donation.


Hi Investment & Securities delivered 2 million KRW in sponsorship funds to Seoul Hyojeong School through the DGB Social Contribution Foundation. Half of this amount was used to prepare braille card production sets to assist visually impaired infants and toddlers in their learning. The remainder was donated as activity funds to support student welfare and autonomous activities.



CEO Kim Kyung-gyu said, "Through this donation, I hope all our employees can have an opportunity to view people with disabilities from an equal perspective," adding, "Hi Investment & Securities will continue to contribute, even if just a little, to moving toward a better society."
