On August 19, ChildFund Korea (Chairman Hwang Younggi) announced that it has partnered with Persys Group to provide furniture support for self-reliant youth preparing for independence. ChildFund Korea delivered furniture donated by Persys Group-including beds, chairs, bookshelves, and storage cabinets, worth approximately 100 million won-to 50 self-reliant youth across the country.

Additionally, ChildFund Korea supported both personal and shared/office spaces at Raum, the Youth Independence Support Center in Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province, by providing furniture. This initiative aimed to create an environment where self-reliant youth can interact and build a sense of community.

In December of last year, Persys Group also provided furniture for self-reliant youth nationwide through ChildFund Korea, and the company has consistently engaged in social contribution activities, including volunteer work involving its employees.

Youngkyu Kim, Vice President of Persys Group, stated, "This support goes beyond simply delivering furniture; it is meant to encourage and support self-reliant youth as they embark on a new chapter in their lives. We hope this will help them build a stable foundation for planning their futures."

Jungwon Shin, Head of Social Contribution Cooperation at ChildFund Korea, said, "We hope that Persys Group's warm generosity will provide practical help to self-reliant youth. ChildFund Korea will continue to offer ongoing support so that more self-reliant youth can settle into society and achieve independence in a stable manner."
