[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] This winter, frozen solid by severe cold waves and economic recession, a donation filled with neighborly love arrived at the Sungin 2-dong Community Service Center in Jongno-gu (Mayor Kim Young-jong), becoming a hot topic.


On the 30th of last month, a resident who visited the community center handed over a thick envelope, asking for it to be used as a Hope Ondol Warm Winter Fund.


The anonymous donor, who firmly refused to reveal their name, delivered the amount of 1 million won, which they had carefully saved over the past year, requesting it be used for neighbors in need within the community.


The Sungin 2-dong Community Service Center selected 50 low-income households facing economic difficulties and restrictions on indoor heating or outdoor activities during the winter season, and plans to use the precious donation to provide scarves.


The scarves will have labels attached that convey the spirit of sharing from our neighborhood’s donation angel, spreading warmth together.



Kim Dong-jun, head of Sungin 2-dong, said, “We deeply thank the anonymous donation angel who showed warm kindness to neighbors despite the difficult situation caused by COVID-19.”
