On the 18th, EDAM Entertainment, the agency, donated a total of KRW 225 million to the `Korean Association of Insectable Diseases" and 'Hansarang Infant Center" under the name of the IU, which combines the name of her activity and the official fan club name 'Una' and 'Una'" he said.
IU, who has continued her donation activities under the name of 'IUANA' every year on her debut anniversary to repay the love and support she received from her fans, conveyed her warm heart again this time. The donation will be used in various ways to help children with rare and intractable diseases, including medical expenses, education, psychological counseling, medical supplies, milk support and home-visit delivery for the health of elderly people alone, support for the replacement of aging elevators in facilities for the severely disabled, support for the creation of convenience facilities in infant homes, and support for rehabilitation treatment costs.
Starting with supporting heating costs for the socially vulnerable in January this year, IU donated a total of 200 million won to the Korean Association for Single Mothers in the name of 'IUanna' to celebrate her birthday in May. Donations delivered to each organization at the time were used to support artificial cochlear surgeries, speech rehabilitation treatments, and external devices for children and adolescents with hearing impairments, as well as vulnerable groups in need.
In addition to the debut anniversary, IU has been continuing her donation activities for the vulnerable in society, including Children's Day, the end of the year, and birthdays. In this way, she increased the value of co-prosperity by having a positive influence across society by spreading the culture of sharing through continuous donations and encouraging public participation.
Through her agency, IU said, "Thanks to UAENA, I have a heart and values filled with love, and I'm happy to be able to do something so meaningful every year under the name of "IUENA"." It's a small help, but I hope it's a good gift for those who receive it. Thank you Uana for always instilling love in my heart. Let's go for a really long time ♥."
