[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] The Suncheon City Sports Council (President Lee Sang-dae) designated and donated 5 million won to Suncheon City through the Community Chest of Korea on the 13th to participate in the 'Suncheon-style Kwonbun Movement' to help vulnerable groups suffering from COVID-19.


President Lee Sang-dae said, "With the prolonged COVID-19 situation causing ongoing economic crises for marginalized groups, I donated with the hope that it would bring some hope and comfort to those marginalized groups." He added, "We will continue to pay attention to the local community and strive to practice sharing."


So far, the Suncheon City Sports Council has continuously engaged in activities for the local community, such as disinfecting and providing disinfectants to about 300 sports facilities in the area to overcome COVID-19, participating in blood donations to address the shortage of blood supply caused by COVID-19, and conducting campaigns to practice 'social distancing.'



Suncheon Mayor Heo Seok said, "Due to the spread of COVID-19, all Suncheon citizens, including marginalized groups and small business owners, are going through mentally and economically difficult times." He added, "We appreciate the meaningful donation for sharing the pain, and it will be a great comfort and encouragement to neighbors in need, giving them strength to overcome these difficult times."
