[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Seon-ae] On the 23rd, the Korea Securities Depository KSD Nanum Foundation held a wheelchair delivery ceremony for children with severe disabilities in collaboration with the Korea Disabled Development Institute at its Seoul headquarters, the foundation announced on the 24th.

The wheelchair support project for children with disabilities began in 2012. Including 63 units this year, a total of 383 wheelchairs have been provided so far.
