NH Bank, in collaboration with the Korea Scholarship Foundation, held a summer camp aimed at supporting elementary school students in rural areas with learning and career exploration.
On August 12, NH Bank announced the opening ceremony of the '2026 Green Lighthouse NH Bank Green Ladder Summer Camp' at the Sono Belle in Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province.
The event was attended by NH Bank President Kang Tae-young, Korea Scholarship Foundation Chairman Park Chang-dal, university student mentors, and over 500 elementary school students from rural areas.
The 'Green Ladder Camp' is a social contribution initiative that provides educational and career experience opportunities to children in rural and remote areas with relatively poor educational and welfare conditions. It has been operated by the Korea Scholarship Foundation since 2020 with support from NH Bank.
The program is divided into on-campus and off-campus camps. The on-campus camp involves university student mentors visiting participating schools for about five days during the summer vacation to conduct subject learning and mentoring.
The off-campus camp consists of a three-day, two-night program featuring lectures from notable figures, career experiences, and cultural performances. NH Bank also offers tailored financial education to help participating students develop sound financial habits.
Kang Tae-young, President of NH Bank, stated, "I hope this provides children with the opportunity to experience a broader world through new experiences," adding, "We will continue our social contribution activities that support the growth of future generations."
