Maple Bear English Academy, a popular English teaching franchise throughout Korea, announced on the 11th that it had held a Canned Food Drive to deliver warm love to underprivileged children, the elderly living alone, and the disabled.

Maple Bear students participated in the donation by bringing canned foods to their campuses.

In order for children to participate more actively and interestingly in donation activities, a thermometer of love was set up to track donations and an event was held in which the children who donated directly would write their names and track the results.

Food collected through donation activities was delivered to various neighbors through the local food bank. An official said he was able to feel the joy of donating while watching the thermometer gradually go up over time, watching the kids show their enthusiasm and seeing how much the donations were helpful.

Maple Bear English Academy in Korea is part of a global education brand headquartered in Canada, operating as many as 500 campuses in 30 countries around the world, and providing immersive education that enables students to learn English naturally.

Maple Bear in Korea is a Canadian children’s English education program that also operates in other countries around the world. Founded in 2007, the company in Korea directly operates Maple Bear’s Songpa branch, and Dongbo Airlines, which operates the domestic distributors of over 30 foreign airlines, is the parent company. Dongbo Airlines is a mid-sized company with companies such as Boram Air, World Bridge Air, Anam Air, and Dongbo Airport Service as affiliates.

The reason why Dongbo Airlines Chairman Lee In-jae introduced Maple Bear to Korea stems from his relationship with Korean Air, where he oversaw the English education of pilots before establishing Dongbo Airlines. He wanted to introduce Canada’s excellent English education system to Korea, which he had encountered while dealing with airlines around the world, such as Air Canada and Austrian Airlines.

Maple Bear, headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, is an educational institution for children that operates more than 260 campuses in 13 countries, including Singapore, the United States, Brazil, and UAE, as well as Canada. It is characterized by an immersive education that naturally facilitates the learning of mathematics, science, music, and art in English by introducing Canada’s public education rather than simply teaching English.

It goes without saying that Maple Bear’s Songpa branch, which has a strong parent company’s sponsorship and a unique philosophy on English education, is loved by the local community.

Thanks to the success of the Songpa branch, which celebrated its 10th anniversary, the number of domestic Maple Bear campuses has increased to 12, including Pyeongchon, Bundang Pangyo, Mapo, Daegu, Daejeon, and Busan.
