This is part of a staggering sum of 300 million won that he donated to support sick and vulnerable children in Korea and relief efforts elsewhere.

The funds disbursed to Samsung Medical Center will help cover treatment costs for children and adolescents with cancer, while the contribution to Seoul National University Children’s Hospital will support pediatric patients from financially vulnerable families. Meanwhile, another donation to Books International will support the creation and production of picture books in children’s native languages as part of cultural education and awareness programs using picture books as a medium.
“I hope the days of many children will be filled with bright hope instead of worry,” Felix stated. “I sincerely hope this can be a small but warm source of strength for their precious today and tomorrow.” Earlier, he has donated a total of 200 million won for children in Laos. He has also joined his fellow Stray Kids members in supporting disaster recovery efforts following wildfires in South Korea and a fire in Hong Kong. Felix's co-member Lee Know has earlier donated 100 million won to Nepal's flood relief.
Stray Kids, meanwhile, is carrying on with its “Run It” world tour and is scheduled to perform its second Buenos Aires, Argentina, show on Tuesday as part of “Straycity,” the group-led festival project being held across three South American locations.
