OBC announced the selection of ‘Jusarang Community Child Center’ in Haenam, Jeollanam-do, as the 8th ‘Happy Library’ venue.
‘Happy Library’ is OBC’s representative CSR program that renovates old local child centers into modern facilities and provides educational materials and books for free.
‘Jusarang Community Child Center’ was selected, considering their urgency – typhoon Bavi and Maysak severely damaged the center in summer. More than 30 students that come visit the center after school for foster care, were affected by the damage.
