Stray Kids continue to strengthen their reputation as artists with a global heart, as members Felix and Han both celebrated their September birthdays with generous acts of giving. Their contributions are part of a group-wide tradition this year, with all members choosing to donate on their special days.
On September 15, 2025, Felix donated a total of 200 million won (approximately $144,000) to three organizations. The 25-year-old idol pledged 100 million won to Samsung Medical Center to help cover treatment costs for children and adolescents. He also sent 50 million won ($36,000) each to World Vision and UNICEF, of which he serves as a goodwill ambassador.
UNICEF confirmed the funds will support nutrition and clean water projects in Laos, while World Vision will direct Felix’s contribution toward children in need of family care.
Felix expressed deep gratitude while reflecting on his gift. “Thanks to the unwavering love I receive from fans, I was able to take part in sharing for the brighter future of children in Korea and abroad, which fills me with deep emotion. I sincerely hope that all children will be able to dream freely,” he shared.
This marks the second year Felix has used his birthday as a moment to give back. In 2024, he also donated to UNICEF and World Vision, 50 million won each.
His philanthropic track record extends further: he has previously donated across two campaigns to UNICEF, focusing on malnutrition and water sanitation projects for children in Laos.
Felix even visited the project site, offering encouragement to local communities. Beyond that, he contributed to emergency relief following the devastating Syria–Turkey earthquakes in February 2023. Earlier this year, Stray Kids members donated 800 million ($575,000) to wildfire recovery projects in South Korea’s Gyeongnam and Gyeongbuk regions.
Just one day earlier, on September 14, fellow member Han made his own birthday donation. He gave 100 million won to Samsung Medical Center to assist patients battling serious illnesses, as well as children and adolescents in need of urgent care.
What makes these gestures more significant is that Felix and Han are not alone. In 2025 so far, all Stray Kids members have celebrated their birthdays by donating to different causes, ranging from medical aid to child support programs.
Meanwhile, Stray Kids remain busy with their music activities. The group will wrap up their dominATE World Tour with a highly anticipated encore concert on October 18–19 at the Incheon Asiad Main Stadium. The tour, which has taken them to major venues around the world, will conclude with a symbolic homecoming for fans in Korea.
