[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Shin Dong-ho] Gwangju Shinsegae Co., Ltd. (CEO Lee Dong-hoon) announced on the 4th that it has donated 10 million won to the Jeonnam Community Chest of Korea to support the "cool summer" of the underprivileged in the Jeonnam region.

The donation ceremony was attended by Roh Dong-il, Chairman of the Jeonnam Community Chest of Korea, Lee Dong-hoon, CEO of Gwangju Shinsegae, and Kim Sang-gyun, Secretary General of the Jeonnam Community Chest of Korea, among others.

The donated funds will be used to provide cool summer blankets to 250 underprivileged households who suffer from heatwaves and monsoons every summer.

Lee Dong-hoon, CEO of Gwangju Shinsegae, said, "It seems that many underprivileged people struggle not only in winter but also in summer," and added, "I hope the support is delivered to families who really need it."

Gwangju Shinsegae has supported the local underprivileged by providing emergency relief supplies through the Gwangju Youth Center in April, supporting play kit costs for children in vulnerable families in May, delivering treatment expenses for pediatric cancer patients in June, and providing electric fans to underprivileged families in the Gwangju area in July.
