SEVENTEEN's Hoshi has made a significant impact with his charitable efforts.

On the 16th, the Community Chest of Korea announced that Hoshi has donated 100 million KRW (approximately $72,000) to improve educational facilities in Zambia. The funds will be used for the construction and renovation of classrooms at Mansansa Government School in Ndola, Zambia. This school serves around 350 students from kindergarten through 7th grade.
