[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] We will change your bedding to fresh and fluffy ones!


The Hwaseo-myeon Office of Sangju-si, Gyeongbuk, the Sangju-si District Council of the Korean Red Cross Volunteer Society, and the Hwaseo-myeon Red Cross Volunteer Society rolled up their sleeves in front of piles of laundry.


On the 9th, at the Hwaryeong Citizen Center, they provided laundry support and supply services for vulnerable groups with mobility difficulties, including clothing and bedding.


On that day, members of the Red Cross Volunteer Society visited vulnerable households such as low-income elderly living alone and disabled people to check on their well-being and collected clothing and bedding that needed washing. The laundry, after washing and drying, was returned to the owners' homes.


An elderly person living alone said, "I found it difficult to wash my winter bedding by myself and never even tried, so I am grateful that it has been made as clean as new bedding like this."


Kim Hwaja, the head of the Volunteer Society, said, "We hope to provide a small help so that our neighbors can live in a healthy and comfortable environment. We will take the lead in making our village a better place to live by prioritizing the underprivileged."



Yoon Boyoung, the head of Hwaseo-myeon, said, "I thank the members of the Red Cross Volunteer Society who helped provide a comfortable living environment for our neighbors in need, especially at a time when cleanliness and hygiene are more important due to COVID-19."
