It is already December, only few days left until we say goodbye to 2017 and say hello to 2018. It is the most wonderful time of the year when everything is all so merry and full with hope. During this time of the year, everything has a scent of Christmas. It is all the time of year when Santa Claus is coming to town. It is said that Santa Claus brings gifts to the well-behaves children on Christmas Eve.
It seems like the children living in Gandgond-gu have behaved nice because, this Christmas, Santa Claus is coming to Gangdong-du to deliver gifts to children. Gangdong-gu office is holding a “Hope Tree and Santa’s Expedition” event on December 15th.
This event is held together with the Green Usan Children’s Foundation (초록우산 어린이 재단) and the Association of Children’s Center in Gangdong-gu. These two institutions are also holding the convention on the service for the health and growth of children.
Five different welfare centers are granting the wishes of children. They are also providing gifts such as Bluetooth speakers, electric hand heaters, vitamins, scarves, hats and much more to over 300 children.
The “Hope Card” which are cards that children wrote their wishes are going to be installed at “I got everything” café. This is a job café for disabled people in the Gangdong-gu city office. The “Santa Expedition” event will also held here.
Gangdong District Office President Lee Hae-sik said, “The ‘Hope Tree’ and ‘Santa Expedition’ will strengthen cooperation and help the children feel happier in Gangdong-gu, and eventually lead Gangdong-du into being a child-friendly city.”
