OB Beer Opens 11th 'Haengbok Library' in Gangneung

OB Beer announced on the 4th that it has opened the 11th branch of the 'Happy Library' in Jumunjin, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do, to support after-school learning for local children.

OB Beer's Happy Library is a social contribution program that selects underdeveloped local children's centers, supports interior remodeling, and provides educational materials and books such as desks and bookshelves free of charge. It has been ongoing for eight years since the first branch opened in 2016 to improve the learning environment for local children who need after-school care.

This year, to support and encourage children in the East Coast region of Gangwon-do who suffered great damage from a large wildfire in April, the 'Sodol Local Children's Center' in the Gangneung area was selected as the 11th Happy Library. The outdated learning space was remodeled to create a safe and comfortable environment, and play and rest areas were established. Learning supplies such as desks and bookshelves were replaced with new products and provided.

OB Beer, together with Woongjin ThinkBig, donated 200 learning books for elementary school students. Since 2016, OB Beer has donated a total of 4,200 books to the Happy Library.

An OB Beer official said, "OB Beer continues the 'Happy Library' project to provide a safe and comfortable learning environment for local children," adding, "We will make various efforts so that children, the future leaders, can nurture their dreams and hopes."
