Gangdong-gu Supports Flood-Affected Yeonggwang-gun with Wardrobes and Chairs

Delivered 14 Refurbished Secondhand Recycled Furniture Items in Collaboration with Recycle City

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gangdong-gu (Mayor Lee Jeong-hoon) delivered 14 pieces of household furniture, including drawers, wardrobes, chairs, and storage cabinets, to Yeonggwang-gun, which was declared a special disaster area due to flooding on the 4th.

This support is even more meaningful as it was done in collaboration with the private company Recycle City (CEO Moon Dae-wang).

Recycle City, which is entrusted with operating the Gangdong-gu Recycling Center, collects recyclable used goods with compensation (paid and free) and recycles them to save resources, reduce environmental pollution, and promote a healthy consumption culture and sharing.

The items delivered to Yeonggwang-gun this time are also refurbished household furniture from Recycle City. They consist of drawers, wardrobes, chairs, and storage cabinets that are prone to damage from flooding, helping to minimize inconvenience in daily life.

Lee Jeong-hoon, Mayor of Gangdong-gu, said, “I hope this delivery of goods will be of some help to our district and our sister city Yeonggwang-gun. I also express my gratitude to Recycle City for sharing this intention.”

Moon Dae-wang, CEO of Recycle City, said, “I am glad to be able to provide practical help to the residents of Yeonggwang-gun who suffered flood damage due to heavy rain.”

In August, the district also supported seven sister cities, including Eumseong-gun in Chungbuk, which was affected by the 2020 heavy rain, with items such as thermometers, mini tables, bottled water, and cup noodles.
