The Hope Toy Library project will be implemented in all countries where the Emart retailer system is present.
Kim Kun Sun, Deputy General Director of Shinsegae Corporation, said the model of toy library is not new, but always necessary to equip children with basic knowledge and skills for their future life, and in advance enable them to have a happy childhood.
Operating for nine years in the Republic of Korea with 36 libraries established from 2007, the Hope Toy Library project in Vietnam is the first community activity abroad of the Shinsegae Corporation.
