Changmin Choikang, Donates 30 Million Won to Children Aging Out of Protection

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Isul] TVXQ member Choi Kang Changmin (Shim Changmin) contributed with a donation to support children aging out of protective care.

The Beautiful Foundation announced on the 24th that Choi Kang Changmin donated 30 million won to the foundation on the 21st. The donation will be used through the Beautiful Foundation’s ‘University Student Education Support Project’ to assist the academic pursuits and self-development of children aging out of care and to establish support systems.

‘Children aging out of protective care’ refers to children who have lived in childcare facilities or foster homes and must leave upon turning 18. According to statistics, an average of 2,500 young people age out of care annually, starting independent lives at an early age.

Choi Kang Changmin has shown deep interest in supporting children and youth by donating 50 million won each in 2019 for children from multicultural and single-parent families, and last year, on Children’s Day, donating 55 million won to vulnerable children.

Through the foundation, Choi Kang Changmin said, “As the new year approaches, I wanted to help even one more child or youth study hard and move closer to their dreams,” and added, “I will continue to support the healthy independence of the ‘eighteen adults’ taking their first steps into the world.”
