Subject Gangdong-gu, for Chuseok, sharing activities for low-income residents...A series of donations from residents.

Gangdong-gu, Seoul, announced on the 18th that residents are sponsoring sharing activities for low-income residents.

According to Gangdong-gu that day, an anonymous donor sent 250 bags of 20-kilogram rice to Guro, asking for use for neighbors in need. In terms of amount, it is worth 14.9 million won. Mr. Kim, who donates rice every holiday, also spent 200 packs of 10-kilogram rice (worth 6.2 million won) this Chuseok. Rice was delivered to social welfare facilities and low-income residents in the jurisdiction.

In August, 30 packages of 10kg of rice (worth 920,000 won) directly farmed by the search direction of the Daesunjinri Association were delivered to Gangdong Food Bank Market, and Hyundai Department Store's Cheonho branch donated 60 toy sets (worth 3.22 million won) to children from low-income families.

Eco-friendly Food Co., Ltd., a social enterprise in the jurisdiction, donated 200 sets of tofu and soybean water (worth 2.95 million won) to mark the Chuseok holiday following the Lunar New Year holiday.

Gangdong-gu also used the 2021 Hope Ondol Warm Winter Donation to provide food packages containing flour, ramen, and cooking oil to single-person households (500 households) and 450 users of Gangdong Food Market. Mayor Lee Jung-hun visited Gangdong Food Bank Market on the 14th and packaged and delivered food packages together.

The district is running a "food sharing event" for employees and residents until the 24th. Food and household goods that can be stored for a long time will be donated and delivered to Gangdong Food Bank Market.

Lee Jung-hun, head of Gangdong-gu District Office, said, "I would like to thank everyone who gave a helping hand to share so that neighbors in need can have a rich Chuseok despite the prolonged COVID-19 crisis," adding, "We will make more efforts to establish a culture of sharing in the region."
