Busan Office of Education Receives Educational Donation from Korea Asset Management Corporation

Donation of 170 Million Won to Support Busan Oryun School and Others

The Busan Metropolitan Office of Education (Superintendent Ha Yoonsoo) received an educational donation of 170 million KRW from Korea Asset Management Corporation (President Kwon Namjoo) on the 31st at the superintendent's office to support the self-reliance of protected children and to address educational disparities.

The donation ceremony was attended by Ha Yoonsoo, Superintendent of Education, Kwon Namjoo, President of Korea Asset Management Corporation, Kim Heeseok, Head of the Busan branch of ChildFund Korea, and other related officials.

The Office of Education plans to use the donated funds to support child care facilities and Busan Oryun School, which serve as living spaces for protected children in the Busan area.

Of the total, 100 million KRW will be used for the renovation and maintenance of these facilities, while 70 million KRW will be allocated as customized self-reliance support for protected children.

Among the funds, 50 million KRW will be provided to improve the learning environment of the vocational education welding practice room at Busan Oryun School, including interior renovations and installation of welding booth equipment. This is part of the educational support measures for protected children promised by Superintendent Ha Yoonsoo during his visit to Busan Oryun School last year.

Ha Yoonsoo, Superintendent of the Busan Metropolitan Office of Education, said, "I would like to thank Korea Asset Management Corporation for their continued support this year to help bridge the educational gap and promote self-reliance for protected children in welfare blind spots," and added, "The Office of Education will also spare no effort to support students so that they can fully pursue their dreams even in challenging environments."
