Supporting Transportation Costs for Low-Income Youth
On December 16, as part of its social contribution initiative, Mybi donated 200 transportation cards, each worth 100,000 KRW, totaling 20 million KRW, to Changwon Special City to help alleviate transportation costs for low-income youth.
The donation ceremony, held in the reception room at City Hall that day, was attended by Jang Geum-yong, Acting Mayor of Changwon Special City, and Son Minsoo, CEO of Mybi.
Since signing an agreement in 2021 for the 'Social Contribution Project to Support Transportation Expenses for Low-Income Youth,' Changwon City and Mybi have been practicing social value and sharing for five consecutive years. The donated transportation cards will be distributed to 200 low-income youths in the area through the Gyeongnam Community Chest of Korea.
The city has been working with Mybi to promote various public transportation innovation projects, including the establishment and management of an integrated transportation card system and the implementation of a contactless (tagless) fare payment system, aiming to enhance citizen convenience and advance transportation services. These collaborative projects contribute to building a sustainable transportation environment, and this donation is expected to further strengthen cooperation with the local community.
Jang Geum-yong, Acting Mayor of Changwon Special City, said, "We deeply appreciate Mybi for continuously supporting local youth through ongoing sharing," adding, "We will ensure that the donated transportation cards are effectively used to help reduce transportation costs for young people."
