Korea Expressway Corporation Gwangju-Jeonnam Conducts 'Joint Volunteer Service for Villages Adjacent to Highways'

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Korea Expressway Corporation Gwangju Jeonnam Headquarters (Head Kim Ju-seong) announced on the 27th that on the 26th, it conducted a ‘Joint Volunteer Service for Villages Adjacent to Highways’ at Hakgu Village, Bongdeok-ri, Seungju-eup, Suncheon City, together with the Suncheon Branch (Branch Manager Shin Sang-rok) and others.

This event was held in a non-face-to-face manner by producing ex-Happiness Boxes (local agricultural products) to support elderly residents in rural areas, instead of the previous method of sharing representative rest area foods, to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

In addition, a mobile laundry vehicle service using a vehicle was provided, along with village environment maintenance activities, and traffic safety promotional items were delivered to ensure the traffic safety of the elderly.

A representative of Korea Expressway Corporation Gwangju Jeonnam Headquarters said, “We plan to closely cooperate with the Jeollanam-do Volunteer Center in the future so that the sharing volunteer activities targeting elderly residents in rural villages adjacent to highways can continue as a representative brand. We will do our best to realize social value through win-win cooperation with local communities struggling due to COVID-19.”

Meanwhile, Korea Expressway Corporation Gwangju Jeonnam Headquarters and Jeollanam-do Volunteer Center signed a social contribution business agreement in November 2015 and have been regularly jointly performing rest area food sharing volunteer services and mobile laundry volunteer services targeting elderly residents in rural villages adjacent to highways.
