[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] The Gwangju Community Chest of Korea (Gwangju Sarangui Yeolmae) announced on the 2nd that the 'Our Gwangju Social Vaccine Sharing Campaign' to solve social problems after COVID-19 has been completed with the interest and love of citizens.

The 'Our Gwangju Social Vaccine Campaign,' which ran for 47 days from June 15 to July 31, raised a total donation amount of about 850 million won through the warm sharing hands of Gwangju citizens.

Starting with the first donation by Han Sangwon, chairman of the Gwangju Community Chest of Korea, 14 members of the Honor Society participated in the campaign, and active sharing participation by companies such as Korea Electric Power Corporation, Marine Energy, Jeongsang Enterprise Co., Ltd., and Dotnetsoft Co., Ltd. became a model for others.

Chairman Han said, "The reason the Social Vaccine Campaign could be successfully completed is thanks to the warmth of Gwangju citizens who think of and help their neighbors even amid the disaster of COVID-19," adding, "Gwangju Sarangui Yeolmae will fully fulfill the role of the social vaccine so that everyone's hearts can be well conveyed."

Meanwhile, the nationwide 'Korea Social Vaccine Sharing Campaign' was prepared to support disaster-vulnerable groups facing difficulties due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and economic recession, as well as new social problems such as depression and unemployment caused by COVID-19.

In addition to low-income households, the funds will be delivered to social welfare sites within Gwangju Metropolitan City to be used for improving the welfare of a wider range of beneficiaries.
