Stray Kids member FELIX has donated a total of 300 million won to support treatment costs for children and adolescents with cancer, underprivileged children, picture book-based cultural education and awareness-raising programs, and emergency relief for the severe flood in Nepal.
To celebrate his birthday on September 15, FELIX donated 100 million won each to Samsung Medical Center and Seoul National University Children's Hospital, and 50 million won each to Books International and the Korean Committee for UNICEF, bringing the total to 300 million won. The funds will be used to support treatment costs for pediatric and adolescent cancer patients at Samsung Medical Center, assist vulnerable children at Seoul National University Children's Hospital, create and produce native-language picture books as part of Books International's picture book-based cultural education and awareness-raising programs, and provide emergency flood relief in Nepal through the Korean Committee for UNICEF.
FELIX shared his feelings, saying, "I hope many children's days will be filled with bright hope instead of worries. I sincerely hope this becomes a small yet warm source of strength for the children's precious today and tomorrow."
FELIX has consistently demonstrated a positive influence. In 2024, he donated to UNICEF's nutrition and water, sanitation, and hygiene support project for children in Laos, as well as World Vision's breakfast support project for vulnerable children in South Korea. In 2025, to celebrate his birthday, he sent donations to support treatment costs for pediatric and adolescent patients at Samsung Medical Center, assist family caregiver children through World Vision, and support UNICEF's nutrition and water, sanitation, and hygiene support project for children in Laos. Alongside his Stray Kids members, he also delivered donations in 2025 to Hope Bridge National Disaster Relief Association and World Vision to support recovery efforts for wildfire damage in the Gyeongnam and Gyeongbuk regions, as well as to World Vision Hong Kong for recovery efforts from the Hong Kong fire.
Meanwhile, Stray Kids is expected to shine even brighter through their performances on stage. On September 15 (local time), the group will hold the second show of their performance in Buenos Aires, Argentina, as part of their newly launched group-led festival "STRAYCITY" across three regions in South America, while also continuing the momentum of their successful world tour "RUN IT".
