[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] Hunet, a lifelong education specialist company, announced on the 3rd that it has donated "donation funds to support the independence of children leaving childcare facilities" to the Children and Future Foundation, a social welfare corporation.

The donation ceremony held on the 27th of last month was attended by Kim Hyungkwan, director of Hunet, and Kim Byungki, head of the Children and Future Foundation. Hunet provides scholarships to help adolescents leaving childcare facilities become independent adults after turning 18.

The scholarships were raised through Hunet's CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) program "Happiness Bridge." A total of 25 million KRW was raised through a matching grant method, where employees voluntarily donated monthly and the company matched the same amount. In addition, Hunet explained that it will provide free access to all Hunet educational courses worth 45 million KRW, necessary for obtaining degrees and certifications.

A Hunet official said, "We named this social contribution project 'Happiness Bridge' to serve as a bridge for adolescents leaving childcare facilities to successfully settle in society and become independent."

Meanwhile, the Children and Future Foundation selects 15 Happiness Bridge scholarship students annually through a social welfare institution contest and provides scholarships and education vouchers quarterly.
