On April 25, Doosan Corporation delivered more than 100 million won (about $89,000) to the Babo Nanum Foundation (Chairman Hee-Song Son) to fund its “Mom’s Future” program at the Archdiocese of Seoul, Myeongdong, Jung-gu, Seoul. The funds will go to help unwed mothers stand on their own feet.
Since 2013, Doosan Corporation has supported unwed mothers to help them achieve self-sufficiency, in partnership with the Babo Nanum Foundation. The funds are created by employee contributions and matching grants by the company. The money will be used to provide vocational training or startup education courses to the mothers and financial support for child nurturing.
* Matching grants: A company matches the contributions made by employees to support a charitable program..
