In the first year, a total of 15 family care children will be selected through the Green Umbrella Foundation and provided with a care burden relief package. To make this possible, Nexon Games donated 100 million won to the Green Umbrella Foundation.

Family care children refer to children, adolescents, or young adults who care for family members in need due to disability, illness, or aging, or who bear the responsibility of supporting their families. Although they are a vulnerable group, they often do not receive adequate support due to a lack of social awareness and gaps in the welfare system.

The care burden relief package is a customized program in which a care coordinator develops a care plan tailored to each child’s situation. It includes: financial support for solving issues related to care, education, health, and housing; regular delivery of essential goods such as food and daily necessities; provision of information on welfare, medical services, relevant systems, and local resources; and connection to emergency care services.

In the medium to long term, Nexon Games plans to offer family care children opportunities for cultural experiences and to organize volunteer programs involving its employees, thereby expanding the scope of its activities.

Kang Insu, Chief Operating Officer of Nexon Games, said, "We hope that the With Young project will help family care children reduce their burdens and prepare for the future, even if just a little. We will continue to provide ongoing support."

Kim Jungwook, Chairman of Nexon Foundation, stated, "We hope to share the difficulties faced by family care children and raise social awareness. We will continue to provide responsible support so that they can enter society in good health."
