Content creator platform company Sandoll Inc. (CEO: Youngho Yun) announced on the 22nd that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Korean Committee for UNICEF (Chairperson: Gab-Young Jung) to develop fonts based on award-winning entries from a children's handwriting contest.
The signing ceremony took place on July 21 at the UNICEF Korea headquarters in Mapo-gu, Seoul, and was attended by key representatives including Youngho Yun, CEO of Sandoll, and Mijin Cho, Secretary-General of the Korean Committee for UNICEF.
This partnership is part of a broader social contribution project aimed at respecting children’s creativity and rights, and promoting those values through digital technology and content. Sandoll will create fonts based on three winning entries from the UNICEF Children’s Handwriting Contest: one grand prize (overall winner) and one top prize each from the preschool and elementary categories.
The selected handwriting entries will be transformed using Sandoll’s advanced font development technology into typefaces that preserve the individuality and emotional nuance of children’s writing, while also ensuring high technical quality and versatility across digital environments.
The final fonts will be unveiled on November 20, in celebration of World Children’s Day, and will be broadly applied across various official UNICEF Korea materials, including:
- Publications related to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC)
- Global online fundraising campaigns
- Content for UN-designated international observances
The font will serve as a key visual medium for conveying messages of children’s rights, equality, and participation. It will be distributed free of charge to the public, exclusively through UNICEF Korea and SandollCloud.
Mijin Cho, Secretary-General of UNICEF Korea, expressed her appreciation:
“We are grateful to Sandoll for supporting the creation of the ‘UNICEF Children’s Font’ through their generous donation of talent and technical expertise. We hope that many people will take interest in this font, which captures the pure spirit of children.”
Youngho Yun, CEO of Sandoll, commented:
“Children’s handwriting carries emotions and imagination that are difficult to express in adult language. This collaboration with UNICEF is a meaningful opportunity to show that Sandoll’s technology can go beyond industry applications and serve as a vehicle for social value and important messages.”
Sandoll has long embraced its corporate philosophy of realizing social value, establishing the Sandoll Cultural Foundation and consistently supporting NGO activities. This project is a continuation of those efforts. The company is also dedicated to advancing technologies in related fields such as AI-based font search services and AI-generated imagery, as it strives to become a company that unites technological innovation with social responsibility.
