The Hapcheon Welfare Center for Atomic Bomb Victims is a welfare facility established by the Korean Red Cross in 1990 with support from Korea and Japan. It was built to resolve issues for Korean atomic bomb victims who returned home after being exposed to radiation in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. The delivered funds will be used for seasonal cultural events, psychological therapy programs, and environmental improvements of the living quarters for the victims residing at the center.

The Yeongdeungpo-gu Family Center is an institution established to help resolve various family issues and foster a healthy family culture in the local community. The donation will be used for education and welfare projects for multicultural families, including emergency living expenses, medical costs, one-on-one parenting coaching, and multicultural festivals.

I hope this serves as an occasion for them to lead happier lives through improved environments and emotional stability.”
