[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] As the new year begins, warm-hearted donations such as sponsorship funds and blood donation certificates are continuously being made to Hwasun Chonnam National University Hospital (Acting Director Shin Myung-geun).


According to Hwasun Chonnam National University Hospital on the 9th, on the 7th, nursing students from Donggang University donated 247 blood donation certificates collected through last year's 'Love Blood Donation Campaign.'


The delivery ceremony was attended by President Lee Min-sook, Head of the Department of Nursing Jeong In-ju, and Lee Min-young, president of the RCY (Red Cross Youth) club.


Donggang University students also collected blood donation certificates in 2016 and 2017 and delivered them to Hwasun Chonnam National University Hospital and Chonnam National University Hospital.


Earlier, on the 6th, members of a popular portal site parenting cafe, ‘Gwangju Mam Sudabang,’ visited the hospital and donated about 4.7 million won.


‘Gwangsubang,’ established in 2010, is the largest internet cafe in the Gwangju area, with about 77,000 housewife members and 400 cooperating companies.


To help children with pediatric cancer who are in difficult circumstances, members have been collecting funds together and delivering them annually since 2016.



Acting Director Shin Myung-geun said, “Warm compassion and donations to help those in difficult circumstances are increasing, and willingness to participate in volunteer programs continues. We will strive even harder for ‘Happy Cancer Healing, Hopeful Cancer Conquest’ to repay the support of local residents and customers.”
