Busan Metropolitan City (Mayor Chun Jae-soo) announced that it will hold a donation ceremony for social contribution funds to support youth at risk today, September 16, at 5:00 p.m. in the International Protocol Room at City Hall, together with the National Health Insurance Service Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongnam Regional Headquarters, headed by Hong Yun-hee.

The ceremony has been organized to support young people in becoming self-reliant and growing up healthy. Around 10 people are expected to attend, including Mayor Chun Jae-soo, Hong Yun-hee, head of the National Health Insurance Service Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongnam Regional Headquarters, and representatives from an out-of-school youth support center and youth shelters.

On the day of the ceremony, the National Health Insurance Service Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongnam Regional Headquarters will donate KRW 30 million in social contribution funds to an out-of-school youth support center and youth shelters.

The donated funds will be used to help out-of-school youth obtain certifications and cover education expenses, as well as to support education and medical expenses for youth using shelters.

The initiative is expected to provide practical assistance by strengthening the career development and self-reliance capabilities of out-of-school youth and supporting their healthy growth.

Meanwhile, the National Health Insurance Service Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongnam Regional Headquarters has continuously supported out-of-school youth support centers in Busan since 2019 and, more recently, has carried out a range of social contribution programs aimed at addressing gaps in community welfare, including support for residential child care facilities.

Hong Yun-hee, head of the National Health Insurance Service Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongnam Regional Headquarters, said, “I hope these social contribution funds will help young people in need prepare for their future and grow up healthy. We will continue to communicate with the local community and steadily pursue social contribution activities to address gaps in welfare and create social value.”

Mayor Chun Jae-soo said, “The continued interest and support of the National Health Insurance Service Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongnam Regional Headquarters for youth at risk will provide tremendous encouragement as they overcome difficulties, grow up healthy, and become self-reliant. I am deeply grateful for this meaningful act of sharing for young people in our community.”
