The bank said it has donated school supplies to such students since 2011.
“Thanks to the participation of HSBC employees, our donation, which is now in its ninth year, has been growing every year,” HSBC Korea President Jung Eun-young said during a ceremony held at the bank’s headquarters on Monday.
“I hope this can provide even the slightest help to students in lower-income families who are experiencing hardships due to Covid-19.”
