World Vision (President Myung-Hwan Cho) announced on August 14 that it had received a donation from the male group POW to support young family caregivers in Korea.

POW donated all proceeds raised through the "Being Tender Live" and "Dajeonghaejineun Live" events, which were held following the release of their third album "Being Tender (Dajeonghaejineun Beop)" on June 27. This act was particularly meaningful as the group not only engaged with fans but also redirected their earnings to create social value.

The donated funds will be used to support World Vision’s programs for young family caregivers in Korea (ages 9 to 34) who are responsible for caring for family members or providing for their families due to severe physical or mental illness, or disabilities. These young caregivers are facing psychological and financial hardships as they shoulder both caregiving and livelihood responsibilities. Recently, social interest in supporting these at-risk children and youth has increased, as evidenced by the enactment of the "Act on Support for Children and Youth in Crisis, Including Family Caregivers."

POW stated, "Just like our song 'Being Tender,' we hope for a world where many people show more kindness and encouragement to one another. We know how heavy the burden must be for those caring for family members in need, and we wanted to offer even a little bit of support. We sincerely thank our fans for coming together with us."

Kim Sungtae, Head of the World Vision Sustainable Partnership Division, said, "We deeply appreciate the warm generosity of POW members and their fans. The donation you have provided will be a great support to young family caregivers in Korea. World Vision also looks forward to supporting POW’s upcoming activities, including their comeback in September, which will bring hope and comfort to many through music."
