“The first step toward sharing, walking together”... Relationship Law, a public interest corporation, social contribution activities

‘Manboard Dream Challenge’ with people with developmental disabilities
Director Kim Kuk-il “We will expand Daeryun Law Firm’s expertise to include social responsibility.”

‘Inyeonbeop’, a public interest association established by Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), announced that it has started its first official social contribution activity.

Inyeonbeop participated in the ‘1st Manbo Dream Challenge’ held at Yeongdeungpo Park in Seoul on the 1st and participated in a donation campaign led by people with developmental disabilities and volunteers.

The ‘10,000 Step Dream Challenge’ is an event hosted by the Dream Plus Support Center and sponsored by the Lottery Committee, Donghaeng Lottery, KORAIL, Yeongdeungpo-gu Social Welfare Council, Lunch For You, etc. It is a donation program in which when participants complete the 10,000 step walking course, one set of sharing packages is delivered to the local community per person who completes the walk.

On this day, about 170 people, including 60 people with developmental disabilities, volunteers, and guardians, participated and completed the walking course and participated in donations.

“This Manbo Dream Challenge is the starting point of solidarity in walking with neighbors in need,” said Kim Kuk-il, director of the Relationship Law Firm. “It will become a practice model that expands Daeryun Law Firm’s expertise into social responsibility.” He added, “We will continue to carry out customized public interest projects for the underprivileged through regular volunteer work and regional connection programs.”

Previously, Daeryun Law Firm established the public interest association ‘Relationship Law’ early this year and began full-scale public interest activities for the underprivileged who are in legal blind spots.

‘Relationship Law’ is a name that combines ‘relationship’, which refers to the relationship between people, and law, and contains the meaning of strengthening social solidarity and realizing public value within the bounds of the law.

The first chairman of the board was former Prosecutor General Kim Oh-soo, and it was officially designated as a non-profit public interest corporation on September 30 after approval from the Ministry of Justice.

In the future, Relationship Law plans to expand public interest activities through legal counseling, litigation support, and operation of regular volunteer and sponsorship programs for socially vulnerable groups such as single-parent families, seniors living alone, and the disabled.

In addition, we plan to foster legal professionals who contribute to the public interest through mentoring and internship programs for law majors and law school aspirants, and build a sustainable social contribution system based on this.
