[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Bright Eye Clinic 21 Hospital announced on the 28th that it received the ‘2022 Gwangju Education Donation Merit’ Superintendent’s Commendation from the Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education for its contribution to promoting education donations.

The Gwangju Education Donation Merit Commendation is awarded to outstanding institutions, private organizations, and individual education donors who have provided various educational opportunities to students through education donations in Gwangju or have faithfully carried out education donation-related work.

This commendation was awarded to a total of two recipients, including Bright Eye Clinic 21 Hospital and an individual.

Bright Eye Clinic 21 Hospital was selected as a Gwangju Education Donation Merit Institution in recognition of its efforts to support free strabismus surgery for children from low-income families in the region who are in the blind spots of medical welfare, in cooperation with the Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education, Good Neighbors Gwangju West Branch, and Green Umbrella Children’s Foundation Gwangju Regional Headquarters since 2020.

Bright Eye Clinic 21 Hospital actively identifies vulnerable children who could not receive strabismus treatment due to economic difficulties and has provided free strabismus surgery and medical care to about 30 children, offering generous medical support so that the children can lead happy lives.

Director Kim Deokbae said, “It started with the hope that children would not lose hope and grow up healthy, and I am very happy and grateful to receive this award. I hope this opportunity will help spread the culture of education donation, and I will continue to take the lead in practicing sharing for children.”
