Jimin's Causes and Positive Influence
UNDER CONSTRUCTION
From 2016 to 2018, Jimin supported graduates of Busan Hodong Elementary School, his alma mater, by covering uniform expenses. After news of the school's closing was released, he donated summer and winter middle school uniforms to the final graduates and gifted autographed albums to the entire student body.
In early 2019, Jimin donated ₩100 million (US$88,000) to the Busan
Department of Education to help support lower income students. Of the total,
₩30 million ($23,000) went to his alma mater, Busan Arts High School.
In July 2020, he donated another ₩100 million, this time to the Jeonnam
Future Education Foundation, for the creation of a scholarship fund for
talented but financially struggling students from South Jeolla
Province.
In July 2021, Jimin donated ₩100 million to Rotary International, to
help polio patients. As with previous donations, the benefaction was
made privately, but the news became public in September, when the
Go-seong Rotary Club displayed a banner thanking him for the
donation. On October 12, 2021, Jimin was announced as a member of
the Green Noble Club, a group of major donors to the Green Umbrella
Children's Foundation who have made donations of ₩100 million or
more.
