Hanssem Donates More Than 110 Pieces of Furniture to Adult School
Hanssem provided more than 110 pieces of furniture to Ansan Yongshin School in Ansan, South Korea.
The school was founded in 1987 for older people who missed out on education because of economic or social hardship.
About 100 students study there, taking classes in basic Korean, literacy and courses to prepare for qualification exams.
The school had been using desks and chairs discarded by other schools because it lacked funds.
The new furniture includes supportive chairs designed to reduce strain on older students during long classes.
The donation is part of Hanssem's community program, which plans improvements at five facilities this year, including schools for adult learners and housing for single-parent families.
