Hana Financial Group announced on Sept. 19 that it signed a business agreement with the Autism Society of Korea to laying the foundation for stable social integration and independence for people with autism.
Autism is a type of developmental disability that causes difficulties in social interaction and communication. For people with autism to successfully participate in society, specialized care and support are necessary.
Through this agreement, Hana Financial Group will implement various initiatives to help people with autism become healthy members of society.
These initiatives include supporting job creation for young people with autism, providing customized trust services for safe financial management, supporting the cultural and artistic activities of artists with autism and sponsoring campaigns to raise people’s awareness of disabilities.
First of all, Hana Financial Group will renovate its idle space into a cafe, providing quality jobs to aspiring autistic individuals. By hiring young people with autism who aspire to become professional baristas and providing them with stable and sustainable employment, Hana Financial Group will actively support them in achieving their dreams.
Furthermore, Hana Financial Group will offer a unique trust service to help people with autism effectively manage their living expenses, including food, housing, and medical expenses.
Hana Bank launched its own testamentary trust brand, “Hana Living Trust,” in 2010 and is leading the market.
The bank plans to support stable financial management for individuals with disabilities by leveraging its testamentary trusts and guardianship trusts.
In particular, Hana Bank anticipates addressing the most pressing concerns of parents of individuals with disabilities by offering customized trust products tailored to individual circumstances to support the sustainable economic activities of individuals with disabilities even after the death of their parents.
Furthermore, to support the creative activities of artists with autism, Hana Bank will provide free exhibition space at H.art, an open storage facility operated by Hana Bank, and will also host barrier-free concerts to improve accessibility to culture and the arts for individuals with disabilities.
To improve social awareness of autism, Hana Financial Group will continue employee participation and support for the “Autism Race,” a running campaign organized by the Autism Society of Korea and officially sponsored by Hana Financial Group for five consecutive years since 2020.
