SPC Happy Foundation announced on the 12th that it has carried out the ‘The Safer Happiness’ project to create a safe environment for vulnerable groups in collaboration with the Community Chest of Korea and donated 500 million KRW.

The Safer Happiness Dream Center supports the repair and renovation of fire safety facilities, exposed ceilings, exterior walls, sanitary facilities, and kitchens in local children’s centers nationwide. A total of 300 million KRW will be provided to 20 local children’s centers through the National Association of Local Children’s Centers.
