The K-pop group SEVENTEEN used funds from their GoingTogether campaign to open two learning facilities in Timor-Leste. Situated in the Oecusse and Manatuto districts, the centers provide computer skills, sewing, Korean, and English training, among other vocational and literacy programs.
It is anticipated that they will offer educational chances to more than 300 marginalized people each year. Through their Going Together campaign, SEVENTEEN has been advocating for the value of education on a worldwide scale since August 2022.
New Learning Centers
Funds earned were utilized to promote educational efforts in Malawi, Africa, and came from the income of their globe tour and the “Bongbongie” font that was produced the next year.
Fan meetups have also been used by the group to raise awareness about the future of education and support for underrepresented communities. Turning the Going Together campaign into an international endeavor, SEVENTEEN hosted a special session at the 13th UNESCO Youth Forum in Paris in November.
Top-tier K-pop idols and international youth advocates, have furthered their prominence by continuously contributing to foundations and children’s organizations that serve marginalized communities.
