Sunchon National University Social Service Group Volunteers to Improve IT Infrastructure at Sunchon SOS Children's Village

Worries About Non-Face-to-Face Classes Eliminated Through Computer Upgrades, Internet Network Setup, and Webcam Installation

[Suncheon=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] The Suncheon National University (President Ko Young-jin) Social Service Group announced on the 24th that it has volunteered its talents to improve the IT infrastructure of Suncheon SOS Children's Village.

Suncheon National University has had a volunteer relationship with Suncheon SOS Children's Village since 2020, and in 2021, they signed a mutual cooperation agreement and have been working together on various activities through mentoring and volunteer programs.

Recently, members of the Suncheon National University Social Service Group who visited the facility for volunteer work learned that the computer room and internet network at the SOS Children's Village were outdated, causing many difficulties in running the increasing number of non-face-to-face programs due to COVID-19.

The university community joined forces to solve the problem.

The Suncheon National University Staff Association, with the cooperation of the Information and Computing Center, planned a talent donation volunteer activity to improve the IT infrastructure and headed to the Children's Village on the weekend of the 19th.

The Suncheon National University Social Service Group, supported by equipment funded through the National University Promotion Project, carried out various tasks with current students such as upgrading computers, establishing internet networks, and installing webcams for video classes to facilitate smooth internet use.

The director of Suncheon SOS Children's Village said, “The internet speed was usually slow, and video classes were difficult, causing many challenges in the children's education. Thanks to the talent donation of Suncheon National University members, the children can now freely participate in non-face-to-face classes and activities,” expressing gratitude.

Sun Sang-deok, head of the Suncheon National University Social Service Group, said, “Everyone feels rewarded to be able to help neighbors through the talent donation of university members,” adding, “In the future, through mentoring programs with Suncheon SOS Children's Village, we will steadily expand our activities not only to support children in need but also to serve the local community.”
