OSEN DB.JYP Entertainment and Founder Park Jin-young Donate $415K to Mexico
JYP Entertainment Park Jin-young donation efforts have crossed borders once again as the South Korean entertainment agency and its founder, Park Jin-young (CCO), contributed a total of 550 million KRW (approx. $415,000 USD / 7.5 million pesos) to provide essential medical treatments for vulnerable children in Mexico.
The meaningful donation was raised through a joint effort, combining 450 million KRW from JYP Entertainment and 100 million KRW from Park Jin-young’s personal funds. This initiative is part of the global social contribution program ‘EDM (Every Dream Matters!)’. To ensure impactful delivery, JYP partnered with World Vision Korea, World Vision Mexico, the Association for the Prevention of Blindness in Mexico (APEC), and other key local medical institutions.
Targeted Medical Care for Underprivileged Youth
The medical support project focuses on expanding access to specialized treatments across various fields, including ophthalmology, pediatric respiratory care, cardiology, epilepsy, pediatric hemato-oncology, and rare diseases. Children and adolescents diagnosed with severe conditions undergo a thorough evaluation process by hospital social work departments and dual-country World Vision reviews to receive specialized treatments, surgeries, and assistive devices.
Reflecting on the initiative during meetings with local stakeholders, Park Jin-young shared his heartfelt perspective as both an artist and a father of two daughters, aged 7 and 10. He emphasized that the ultimate goal of their global success is to give back the love received from fans by helping children achieve the healthy futures they deserve.
A Legacy of Global Social Contribution
Partner institutions expressed deep gratitude for this cross-border alliance that extends far beyond K-pop culture. Leaders from World Vision Korea and World Vision Mexico highlighted the significance of this sustainable partnership in Latin America, while APEC reaffirmed its dedication to providing high-quality medical care.
Since launching overseas patient medical support projects in 2020, JYP Entertainment has dedicated approximately 10.1 billion KRW across 10 global regions, helping 4,489 children recover their health. Park Jin-young has personally contributed 1 billion KRW annually since 2022 to spearhead the company’s continuous philanthropic mission, as reported by OSEN.
