The creator volunteer organization “Crayon” (co-chaired by Kim Chaerim and Kim Gwangtae) announced that it successfully conducted a YouTube creator mentoring education volunteer activity for elementary school students at the Dodam Sangdaewon-dong Regional Children's Center on July 25, aiming to improve children's expressiveness and confidence.


The Dodam Sangdaewon-dong Regional Children's Center provides a safe educational and protective environment for children from low-income families and those in need of care. The center carries out a wide range of child welfare initiatives—including after-school cultural experiences and emotional support programs—to help children grow into healthy members of society. According to the center, “While planning a program that could encourage children to participate voluntarily, we proposed a mentoring education volunteer activity on the topic of YouTube creators—which has become one of the top future professions that elementary students aspire to—to Crayon.”

Through this volunteer activity, Crayon leveraged its expertise in content creation to share know-how and put social values into practice. On site, creators including Eongmangjinchang-Youngi, Kim Jisoo, Gyangaemasin, Jakada, Nogadabilder, Chairim-Cheoreom, and Kim Gwangtae participated as mentors. Influencers such as Kim Sihun, Lee Suyeon, Lee Jeongyeop, and Jo Bongu also joined as staff to help operate the program. Various sessions were held, including an introduction to the profession of YouTube creators, a workshop on correct digital media usage, and an open Q&A segment. In particular, the hands-on program where children filmed short videos with smartphones and produced content themselves received enthusiastic responses.


This demonstrates how the one-person media and influencer industry is expanding its influence beyond mere entertainment to include education and the creation of social value.


Building on the positive influence of creators, Crayon continues to take a leading role in spreading positive values throughout society. Currently, Crayon’s official Instagram channel has approximately 6,000 followers, while the total number of followers for all participating creators reaches 23 million. Having previously engaged in various social contributions such as stray dog rescue, plogging activities, and coal briquette volunteering, Crayon plans to broaden its support by combining education and talent donation through mentoring education volunteer programs.


Kim Chaerim, Co-Chair of Crayon, said, “I am glad to have created a chance to give back to the local community by utilizing the know-how and talents that I have built as a creator.” She added, “Through this mentoring education volunteer activity, I hope the children have gained confidence to express themselves and have found an opportunity to dream of various futures.”



A representative from Dodam Sangdaewon-dong Regional Children's Center commented, “Thanks to the mentoring education program with Crayon, we were able to fulfill our wish to show children a broader world,” and added, “We will continue to prepare a wide range of programs to help future generations grow up healthy.”
