The unveiling ceremony was attended by Mayor Jang Wook-hyun, Jeon Woo-heon, Chairman of the Gyeongbuk Community Chest of Korea, and Jung Ok-hee, Head of Yeongju City Sarangui Yeolmae Sharing Volunteer Group.

Kim Jeom-gon, CEO of Shindo Mulsan and Yeongju’s first Honor Society member, Kwon Yong-ho, Yeongju’s 8th member and the first farmer couple to join nationwide, and Kim Dong-jo, Yeongju’s 9th member, also attended.

CEO Kim Jeom-gon said, “By practicing sharing, I received the gift of happiness in my heart,” and added, “Together with my two children, who are also Honor Society members, I will work hard as sharing evangelists to donate and encourage participation in sharing.”

Mayor Jang Wook-hyun said, “It is an honor to host five people who practice noblesse oblige,” and added, “I will not forget the generous hearts of those who willingly made large donations for the region.”
