The KB Securities Rainbow Classroom is a flagship social contribution program aimed at improving the educational and living environments of children both in Korea and abroad. Reflecting KB Securities' ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management philosophy of nurturing future generations, the program has been implemented at a total of 38 locations since its launch in 2009, including 23 sites in Korea and 15 sites overseas, with this Indonesian Rainbow Classroom being the latest addition.

This project was carried out in collaboration with KB Valbury Securities, KB Securities' local subsidiary in Indonesia, and the international NGO World Vision, who worked together from selecting the site to construction.

The project site, Al Rahma Private School, is located in the Cilincing area, approximately 35 kilometers from central Jakarta, and has suffered from frequent natural disasters such as floods, resulting in poor educational infrastructure. In response, KB Securities supported the renovation of classrooms and the computer room, installed solar panels on the school grounds to improve the educational environment, and distributed school supply kits to students at the completion ceremony.

In addition, for the second consecutive year, KB Securities held a Rainbow Forest agreement ceremony in Indonesia to create a mangrove forest. Through this agreement, 200,000 mangrove trees will be planted in the Kapuk Muara area. Mangrove forests play a crucial role in preventing natural disasters such as typhoons and floods, preserving ecosystems, and mitigating climate change.

Sunghyun Kim, CEO of KB Securities, stated, "KB Securities' overseas social contribution projects have continued to grow alongside the company and are playing an important role in education and environmental fields for future generations. We will continue to do our best to achieve mutual growth with our society both at home and abroad."
