Gwangju Dong-gu, Anonymous Donation Angels Continue Good Deeds 'Touching'

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Jo Hyung-joo] Dong-gu, Gwangju announced on the 12th that an 'anonymous donation angel' who donated 100 bags of 20kg white rice last November for neighbors in need in the district has once again donated white rice ahead of this year's Lunar New Year holiday.

The 'anonymous donation angel' delivered 100 bags of 20kg white rice to Dong-gu through a rice mill located in Yeonggwang, Jeollanam-do, on the afternoon of the 11th, just like last year.

This donor, after reading an article about an anonymous supporter who had donated about 550 bags of white rice over 12 times in 5 years but whose good deeds had stopped, personally took over the baton and made a second donation following last year.

Dong-gu plans to distribute the donated white rice evenly to social welfare facilities, group homes, low-income families, and the 'Haetteuneun Restaurant' at Daein Market, which has comforted the difficult lives of ordinary people through the 'Cheonwon Bapsang' (Thousand Won Table) program.

Mayor Lim said, "We deeply thank another donation angel who followed the anonymous supporter and extended warm kindness to neighbors in need," adding, "This will be a great help to vulnerable groups suffering from the double hardship of COVID-19 and cold waves."
