[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Dongguk Lee] Ulju-gun, Ulsan City, will accept applications for the ‘2023 Ulju-gun Youth Growth Support Fund Project’ from the 15th of this month until the 31st of next month.
Following last year, the Ulju-gun Youth Growth Support Fund is designed to reduce the economic burden of local youth related to their studies and to support healthy growth and academic achievement. It is a youth welfare support system provided to nurture future talents of Ulju-gun.
The support target is youths aged 18 (born between 2004.1.1 and 2004.12.31) who have been registered residents in Ulju-gun for more than one year as of the application submission date, including university students, those planning to enter university, or youths aiming to enter university.
However, youths graduating from high school this year can also apply regardless of age criteria.
Participants in similar programs such as the Ministry of Employment and Labor’s National Employment Support System and Ulsan Youth Job-Seeking Support Fund are not eligible for duplicate support.
Ulju-gun provides eligible recipients with a growth support fund voucher of up to 1 million KRW per person annually. Payments are made differentially starting from the quarter in which the application month falls, and retroactive payments are not possible.
Voucher points of 200,000 KRW per quarter, totaling 800,000 KRW, can be used for purchasing study-related items such as books, stationery, electronic devices, and cultural activities, along with a prepaid transportation card worth 200,000 KRW.
Applicants should prepare qualification verification documents and visit the administrative welfare center of their resident registration jurisdiction’s eup or myeon to apply.
