Domestic virtual asset exchange Bithumb announced on the 17th that it will participate in the support project for the Emergency Care Center for People with Developmental Disabilities operated by the Korea Parents Federation of Disabled Persons.


On the previous day, Bithumb donated 10 million KRW to support facility expenses for the Chungbuk Emergency Care Center for People with Developmental Disabilities. The Emergency Care Center for People with Developmental Disabilities is a pilot project established and operated in one location in each metropolitan city and province nationwide as part of the government's national agenda, the "Strengthening Lifetime Care Measures for People with Developmental Disabilities."


Chungbuk selected the Chungju branch of the Korea Parents Federation of Disabled Persons as the operating body through a public contest in March, and Bithumb joined to support the expansion of convenience facilities at the Chungbuk Emergency Care Center for People with Developmental Disabilities. The Chungbuk Emergency Care Center for People with Developmental Disabilities provides temporary 24-hour emergency care services to people with developmental disabilities in urgent situations such as hospitalization, family events, or physical and psychological exhaustion of their caregivers, and began operations in July.



Hwang Seung-wook, Head of Human Resources Support at Bithumb, said, "Bithumb will continue to fulfill its corporate social responsibility so that young people and socially vulnerable groups can participate as healthy members of society."
