In February, Seoul City also supported about 35,000 cosmetics for vulnerable women and youth in collaboration with Hugel and Food for the Hungry. This time, 12,262 cosmetics including serums, toners, and ampoules, which vulnerable women struggling due to COVID-19 can use practically in daily life, will be provided.

Jin Yoon-jin, Executive Director of Hugel, said, "We have been steadily supporting cosmetics with Seoul City throughout this year so that vulnerable women can take care of themselves without worry. Hugel Wellage will continue to carry out social contribution activities for women in the blind spots of society."

Park Jae-beom, Division Head of Food for the Hungry, said, "In the ongoing economic difficulties caused by COVID-19, I hope this sharing event today will be a meaningful occasion to offer comfort and courage to vulnerable women. I hope that with more helping hands, a happy world for all will be created."

Lee Won-mok, Director of Citizen Cooperation Bureau of Seoul City, expressed gratitude, saying, "Many citizens have become more vulnerable due to COVID-19. We thank companies and organizations like Hugel Co., Ltd. and Food for the Hungry that make various donations for vulnerable citizens. Through win-win cooperation projects, we ask more companies and organizations to participate so that practical support can be provided to citizens in need."
