Shin Yu-bin (22, Korean Air), known as the "face of women's table tennis in Korea," donated 50 million won to the UNICEF Committee for Korea to help children and families in Nepal who have suffered significant damage from recent record-breaking floods, in collaboration with sports nutrition brand Yohemite.

According to Shin Yu-bin's management company, Management GNS, this act of sharing came about after Shin expressed her intention to donate a portion of her advertising model fee for the Yohemite brand to neighbors in need. The brand side deeply empathized with and joined Shin's intent, resulting in the preparation of a 50 million won relief fund. The donated funds are scheduled to be used entirely through the UNICEF Committee for Korea for emergency relief, including water, sanitation, and nutrition, as well as support projects for the recovery of safe daily life for children and families in Nepal's flood-affected areas.

Shin Yu-bin said through her agency, "I hope that this will be a little bit of strength for the children and families in Nepal who have lost their livelihoods and are facing great difficulties due to this flood," adding, "I sincerely hope that many people can regain safe daily lives as soon as possible."

Yohemite's Lee Jae-seon (CEO) also stated, "Shin Yu-bin conveyed her intention to donate a portion of her Yohemite model fee to those in need, and we deeply empathized with her warm heart and joined forces," adding, "Since nature is an important foundation that allows us to enjoy sports and outdoor activities while moving, as a brand that has talked about a culture of living with nature, we feel a sense of responsibility for this disaster and hope to contribute to the swift recovery of daily life in the affected areas."

Meanwhile, Shin Yu-bin, as Yohemite's official brand model, is conveying the positive values and healthy energy inherent in sports to the public. Yohemite is a brand that develops hydration, electrolyte, and energy nutrition solutions needed for various sports environments such as running and outdoor activities, and continues various mutual benefit activities together with athletes and the sports community.
