im kinda a sucker for statistics so i found this data really interesting and wanted to share it. more than anything, i wanted to share this to highlight stray kids' generosity and the impact they've had beyond the kpop industry. they've supported hospitals, childrens organizations, disaster relief, international causes, and more throughout the years and i think that side of their careers deserves to be talked about too🩵
so a popular digital magazine channel named 1MA2C calculated and created an infographic titled "Stray Kids, the Angels of Giving" with all the donations stray kids have made throughout their career based on everything that's been publicly disclosed and the total is a whopping ₩3.5 BILLION (~$2.5M USD)
₩2.7B individually + ₩800M as a group
