BNK Busan Bank Supports Vietnamese Agent Orange Victims... Expanding Social Contribution Overseas
$10,000 Donation Delivered in Dak Lak, Vietnam
Support for Building House of Love and Living Expenses for Victims
BNK Busan Bank (President Bang Sungbin) announced on the 6th that it has donated USD 10,000 to the organization "Vesamo" (short for "Meeting of People Who Love Vietnam") to support Agent Orange-affected families in Dak Lak Province, Vietnam.
The donated funds will be used for building homes for Agent Orange victims living in poor conditions, as well as for providing living support funds and relief supplies to affected families.
Busan Bank also provided donations last year to promote friendly relations between Korea and Vietnam, and plans to continue supporting social contribution projects in Vietnam in the future.
Vesamo began in 2002 as a small group of university professors from the Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam regions, and has since grown into a nonprofit corporation under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The organization is active in various exchange activities to support Vietnam, including medical volunteer work and scholarship programs.
