Stray Kids member Felix began his 24th birthday by making generous donations, giving 300 million won ($220,000) to aid children in Korea and aid efforts overseas. On his special day, Felix contributed 100 million won each to the Samsung Medical Center and Seoul National University Children’s Hospital, with the funds aimed at helping children and adolescents with cancer, as well as financially vulnerable families.
Additionally, Felix donated 50 million won each to Books International and UNICEF Korea. The money given to Books International will be used to produce picture books in children's native languages, as part of the organization's cultural education and awareness programs. Meanwhile, Felix's contribution to UNICEF Korea will be used for emergency relief following severe flooding in Nepal.
Felix expressed his hope that the donations would fill many children's days with "bright hope instead of worry."
