Dong-A University (President Lee Haewoo) announced that the Busan Regional Headquarters of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation (Head Lee Sucheol) has donated 10 million KRW as a development fund to promote university student participation in rural volunteer work.

The donation ceremony was held on the 6th at the main conference room of Dong-A University's Seunghak Campus, attended by Kang Daeseong, Vice President of Dong-A University; Lee Sucheol, Head of the Busan Regional Headquarters of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation; Shin Yongtaek, Director of Student and Career Support at Dong-A University; Kim Jeonghwa, Deputy Head of the Busan Regional Headquarters of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation; Park Seondeok, Branch Manager of the Hadan-dong branch of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation; and staff from Dong-A University's Student Welfare Department.

This development fund was provided in recognition of Dong-A University's outstanding rural volunteer activities in the 2024 academic year. The National Agricultural Cooperative Federation, with the support of the National Movement Headquarters for Urban-Rural Win-Win Cooperation, delivered the fund to encourage ongoing interest and volunteerism in rural areas.
