NH Nonghyup Bank Visits Chilseong Elementary and Middle School in Goesan, North Chungcheong for "Mobile Financial Education"

Providing Financial Education at Schools in Regions Facing Population Decline

NH Nonghyup Bank announced on the 15th that it visited Chilseong Elementary and Middle School in Goesan-gun, North Chungcheong Province, on the 14th to conduct "Mobile Financial Education" for students.

Se-bin Lim, Senior Executive Vice President of NH Nonghyup Bank, along with employees and other attendees, conducted mobile finance training and took a commemorative photo on the 14th.

Now in its 10th year, the "Mobile Financial Education" program is a social contribution initiative that provides financial education by visiting schools in areas with low access to financial education, such as regions at risk of population decline. The curriculum includes financial education classes, job experience as a bank employee, and a tour of the bus-type mobile branch (NH Wings), with college student volunteer group Ndolphin also participating.

This session was tailored according to the grade level, with separate programs for lower and upper grade elementary students at Chilseong Elementary and Middle School. Lower grade students experienced the process of issuing a bankbook and card, while upper grade students had the opportunity to directly handle foreign currency exchange work.

Additionally, students gained a deeper understanding of financial work and learned proper currency use through hands-on training using real equipment such as money counting machines and counterfeit bill detectors at the bus-type mobile branch (NH Wings), which are the same devices used at actual bank branches.

Obongseok, Principal of Chilseong Elementary and Middle School, said, "I expect that students will learn sound financial habits and knowledge through this financial education, which will greatly help them grow into adults with healthy economic values in the future," adding, "I hope educational opportunities for students in rural areas will expand even further going forward."

Se-bin Lim, Senior Vice President of NH Nonghyup Bank, stated, "We will continue to expand outreach financial education for students in rural and local communities who are underserved in financial education," adding, "We will support a variety of educational programs so that children can develop sound financial values and capabilities for the future."
