[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] The 'Suncheon-style Sharing Movement,' which helps vulnerable groups and carries on the spirit of sharing and care, is spreading across various sectors. The Seomyeon Majungmul Security Council of Suncheon City (Chairman Kim Sang-hee) delivered the second batch of 93 sharing boxes directly to vulnerable groups in the district on April 13, following the first delivery of sharing goods on April 5.
The preparation for the second batch of sharing boxes was made possible by donations from the Seomyeon Majungmul Security Council (Chairman Kim Sang-hee), which provided food ingredients worth 700,000 KRW including tofu, eggs, and seaweed, and Maeil Food Co., Ltd. (CEO Oh Sang-ho), a local company, which donated 60 sets of fermented sauces worth approximately 1.5 million KRW, securing the resources to deliver the second relay of sharing boxes.
Members of the Seomyeon Majungmul Security Council assembled the sharing packages with the donated items and personally delivered them to 33 vulnerable households in the district, including elderly living alone, people with disabilities, and single-parent families, aiming to contribute significantly to preventing and overcoming the spread of COVID-19.
