[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] The Gyeongnam Hapcheon-gun Healthy Family Multicultural Family Support Center announced on the 26th that 15 families, totaling 45 members of the Family Love Volunteer Group, conducted a non-face-to-face environmental cleanup activity called 'Jupgging.'

This volunteer activity, called 'Jupgging,' a newly coined term meaning picking up trash on the street while walking or running, was carried out by families in accordance with the COVID-19 situation.

In particular, the volunteer activity locations were chosen from the '7-color walking trails,' allowing each family to select their preferred spot, providing a meaningful time to appreciate the beautiful nature of our region, create family memories, and engage in volunteer work.

A family participating in this volunteer activity said, "With COVID-19 showing signs of resurgence nationwide, we were cautious and thought the path to volunteering was blocked, but this non-face-to-face 'Jupgging' activity seems very good. We are happy to help keep the area where we live clean as a family."

Jeon Deok-gyu, head of the Elderly, Children, and Women Division, stated, "We hope that the families who participated in volunteering despite the COVID-19 situation had a meaningful time, and we look forward to the Family Love Volunteer Group leading the way in practicing love for neighbors and the local community through various volunteer activities."
