[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] One Store, an application (app) market operator, announced on the 22nd that it held a rice sharing event for vulnerable groups in the local community who are experiencing difficulties due to the COVID-19 situation.

On the 21st, One Store held the "Rice Sharing of Happiness with One Store" event with the Seongnam Volunteer Center and delivered 200 bags of 10kg rice to vulnerable groups. They canceled the year-end party usually held every year and added a small additional donation to raise the purchase cost of 2,000kg of rice.

One Store continues to share for the local community. Last year, it participated in the "COVID-19 Farm Support" project to help farms growing agricultural products for school meals in the Gyeonggi area, which were struggling due to COVID-19, and has participated in community win-win activities such as volunteering and bazaars every year at the end of the year.

Lee Jae-hwan, CEO of One Store, said, "We decided to continue sponsorship this year to overcome the COVID-19 crisis together and bring vitality to the local community," adding, "We will continue to pay attention so that our neighbors in need around us can spend a warm year-end."
