The Korea Water Resources Corporation's Water Love Sharing Group gifted air conditioners and heaters to the senior center in Gye-nam 2-ri, Jain-myeon, Gyeongsan-si, Gyeongbuk.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Se-ryeong Lee] The K-water Mulsarang Nanum Group of the Unmun Branch of Korea Water Resources Corporation gifted air conditioners and heaters to the senior citizens' center in Gye-nam 2-ri, Jain-myeon, Gyeongsan-si, Gyeongbuk.

The air conditioners and heaters carry the hope that local residents will stay warm and cozy even during the upcoming severe cold wave.

K-water Mulsarang Nanum Group, a volunteer organization of employees from each branch of Korea Water Resources Corporation, was founded in July 2004 and engages in social contribution activities such as environmental preservation, disaster relief, mural painting, and helping neighbors.

The Water Resources Corporation has established a social contribution system, a social service management system, to systematically support the entire process of volunteer activities by the Mulsarang Nanum Group.

Employees of the corporation donate a certain amount from their monthly salary to the Mulsarang Nanum Fund, and the corporation also allocates a sponsorship budget matching the collected amount to support the activities of the Mulsarang Nanum Group.

The Unmun Branch Mulsarang Nanum Group, with about 50 members, has consistently practiced sharing by delivering food items such as rice and ramen, volunteering for briquette distribution, and providing scholarships every year, and also distributed quarantine kits to keep local residents safe from COVID-19.

Chairman Choo Yeon-gil said, “We were able to gift air conditioners and heaters with the membership fees collected by saving 1% of employees' monthly salaries,” adding, “We hope that the senior citizens will gather at the center to rest and spend the cold winter warmly.”

Jain-myeon Chief Choi Soon-hwan said, “We are grateful to the Mulsarang Nanum Group for continuously sharing their hearts even in difficult times,” and added, “With the installation of air conditioners and heaters, our senior citizens' center will become a cozy home for the elders.”
