Members of K-pop titan BTS are continuing their charitable streak.
Charity organization ChildFund Korea said Tuesday that j-hope, whose real name is Jung Ho-seok, donated 100 million won ($89,000) to support the victims of youth violence in Tanzania, East Africa, on the occasion of Children s Day (May 5).
The organization added that the cash will be used to build One Stop Center in Tanzania, which aims to prevent child abuse and help the survivors receive necessary help. Numerous people around the world are undergoing tough times due to the protracted COVID-19 pandemic, j-hope said through the organization. After supporting children in Korea last year, I decided to give a helping hand to kids abroad this time, so that they would not be marginalized.
