The Indian fanbase of Grammy-nominated K-pop sensation BTS has collaborated with Habitat for Humanity India to build disaster-resilient houses for marginalised communities. Titled Project Mi Casa, the fundraiser has been influenced by the BTS hit ‘Home’ and marks the birthdays of three of the band’s seven members — Jeon Jungkook (September 1), Kim Namjoon (September 12) and Park Jimin (October 13). Commenting on the initiative, Dr Rajan Samuel, managing director of Habitat India, said, “Cementing a worldwide reputation as a socially-conscious pop group, BTS has inspired global youth to contribute towards creating a more equitable and inclusive society. The fundraising drive will help us expand our outreach to disaster-affected families.”
