[Asia Economy Reporter Park Sun-mi] The Federation of Korean Industries (FKI) announced on the 27th that it held the Value Step campaign to support the social advancement of self-reliant youth (formerly known as protection-exited children).

The FKI planned this event to help self-reliant youth who have left or are about to leave child protection facilities after turning 18 to settle stably in society and grow.

Starting on the 26th and lasting for a total of four days, the Value Step campaign (a valuable first step taken together by the business community) is co-hosted by Brothers Keeper, a social enterprise supporting self-reliant youth. Nine companies including KB Financial Group, Lotte, Samyang Group, Asiana Airlines, Hanwha, Hyundai Mobis, POSCO, Coupang, and Persol Kelly Korea are providing full support through economic and financial education, employment mentoring, industrial site visits, and vocational training.

At the encouragement luncheon, Huh Chang-soo, chairman of the FKI, said, “Through this campaign, I hope more companies will join Value Step so that self-reliant youth can establish themselves as members of society,” and added, “For standing together rather than standing alone, the business community will also contribute by sharing knowledge and experience, and the FKI will support this effort.”
