Felix of the idol group Stray Kids made a generous donation on his birthday, September 15, to support children and youth both in Korea and abroad.


Felix first donated 50 million won to the UNICEF Korea Committee to support nutrition and water sanitation projects for children in Laos. As a UNICEF Korea Committee Goodwill Ambassador, Felix's entire donation will be used to provide therapeutic food for malnourished children and to improve access to safe drinking water and sanitation facilities in Attapeu, Sanamxay, and Phouvong regions of Laos.


Previously, throughout last year, Goodwill Ambassador Felix donated a total of 150 million won in two installments to help children in Laos suffering from poor nutrition and inadequate water sanitation. He also visited UNICEF project sites in Laos, bringing hope to local children facing various challenges. By making another donation, he continues to show his warm-hearted support for children in need.

Felix said, "The smiles of children in Laos, who continue to live with hope despite difficult circumstances, always remain in my heart," adding, "As a Goodwill Ambassador for the UNICEF Korea Committee, I will listen more closely to the hardships faced by children around the world and strive to deliver the precious love and messages of hope I have received from fans."


Felix also donated 50 million won to World Vision to support 'young carers'-children and youth facing difficulties with livelihood, academics, and career due to family caregiving responsibilities. The donation will be used for World Vision's 'Fillcare' program, which supports young carers. This program provides integrated assistance of up to 3 million won per person in the areas of livelihood, medical care, caregiving, and future planning, to help youth who shoulder caregiving responsibilities due to family illness, disability, mental health issues, or addiction, and who face economic and emotional challenges as a result.



Felix has consistently practiced sharing, previously donating 50 million won for emergency relief following the 2023 T?rkiye-Syria earthquake, 50 million won for the 2024 domestic child support project 'Achimmeoggo' on his birthday, and 100 million won for emergency wildfire relief in 2025.
