The donation will be used to support the healthy independence of youth preparing for self-reliance. The support project aims to help selected youth aged 18 to 29, chosen through an open recruitment and screening process, establish a foundation for independence and acquire financial knowledge by providing seed money in the form of exchange-traded funds (ETF), economic education, and financial counseling.
The Beautiful Foundation will manage the donation by investing it monthly in the Mirae Asset TIGER ETF over 10 months through a systematic savings plan. After the investment period, the fund will be equally distributed and transferred to the individual securities accounts of the beneficiaries. Additionally, basic economic education such as understanding financial tendencies, financial management according to life planning, and prevention of financial damage will be provided to help the youth achieve economic stability.
A representative of the Mirae Asset Park Hyun-joo Foundation stated, "We plan to provide practical support so that youth preparing for independence can confidently manage their economic lives by leveraging the capabilities of the global investment group Mirae Asset. Through this, we aim to help young people learn proper financial habits and enhance their economic self-esteem and independence."
Open recruitment will begin in May, and details about the project and application process can be found on the Beautiful Foundation's website.
