[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Gwiyeol] The Gyeongbuk Office of Education will provide a one-time "Educational Benefit Learning Special Support Fund" this year to alleviate learning deficits among low-income students.

The Educational Benefit Learning Special Support Fund will provide 100,000 KRW per student and will be distributed through the Korea Student Aid Foundation as card points, which can only be used for purchasing at online and offline bookstores and EBS content.

The eligible recipients are students who qualify for educational benefits between March and July of this year, and to receive the special support fund, eligibility must be confirmed by July of this year.

Applications can be submitted online through the Educational Benefit Learning Special Support Fund application website from June 29 to September 30. Even if a student is a recipient of educational benefits, support cannot be provided without applying, so it is essential to apply to receive the fund.

Choi Seonji, Director of the Finance Department, stated, "The Educational Benefit Learning Special Support Fund is expected to reduce the educational expenses burden on low-income households struggling due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and expand educational opportunities for students, leading to more stable educational activities."
