Woori Bank announced on the 17th that it has opened the ‘Naeum Woori’ pediatric cancer rest facility, a treatment support center for children battling pediatric cancer and their guardians, in collaboration with the Korea Leukemia Children's Foundation.

Located near Gyodae Station in Seocho-gu, Seoul, the Naeum Woori pediatric cancer rest facility provides a comfortable space for children undergoing pediatric cancer treatment and their guardians who travel from outside the metropolitan area to Seoul for chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

Supported by Woori Bank, the rest facility is decorated using Woori Bank’s representative character, Wibee Friends, creating a friendly and cozy environment for children. Additionally, encouragement messages written by children who participated in the ‘Woori Bank Woori Art Contest’ were used as interior decorations. Children and guardians using this facility are also provided with complimentary sets of toiletries and hygiene products prepared by Woori Bank.

Applications to use the Naeum Woori pediatric cancer rest facility can be made through the Korea Leukemia Children's Foundation website. A Woori Bank official stated, “We established this rest facility so that children battling pediatric cancer and their parents who come to Seoul for treatment from outside the metropolitan area can focus on chemotherapy with peace of mind,” and added, “Woori Bank will continue to provide extensive support so that children fighting pediatric cancer can recover quickly and grow into healthy members of society.”
