Coway Donates Educational Toys Made for Visually Impaired Children

230 Employees Participate in Volunteer Work
Donations Delivered to Schools for the Blind and Welfare Centers for the Visually Impaired Nationwide

Coway employees are creating educational tools for visually impaired children.

Coway (CEO Lee Haeseon and Seo Jangwon) announced on the 27th that it has produced and donated braille learning tools and activity books for visually impaired children. Coway conducted a social contribution campaign in which employees personally created braille learning tools to improve language acquisition and educational environments for visually impaired children. The braille learning tools are educational aids with braille embossed on fabric, allowing visually impaired children to learn braille through tactile sensation at their fingertips and practice physical activities necessary for daily life.

230 Coway employee volunteers received DIY kits at home and participated in the volunteer activities remotely. Through this campaign, a total of 230 braille tactile learning tools, including braille calendars, braille Yutnori (traditional Korean board game) sets, and physical activity practice aids, were produced. These will be donated to schools for the blind and welfare centers for the visually impaired nationwide.

A Coway representative said, "We conducted this social contribution campaign to help visually impaired children across the country learn braille more easily and grow as members of our society," adding, "We will continue various activities that create social value together with our employees."

Meanwhile, in April, Coway signed an agreement with the Korea Employment Agency for the Disabled to promote employment of people with disabilities, established and is implementing plans to expand employment for the disabled, and contributes to sustainable job creation and employment activation for people with disabilities through initiatives such as founding a wheelchair basketball team and a choir for the visually impaired.
