Suncheon-si Wangjo 1-dong Tongjang Council Executives Donate Neighbor Assistance Fundraising Money

[Suncheon=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] The Wangjo 1-dong Tongjang Association (President Park Jin-sook) in Suncheon City, Jeollanam-do, announced on the 14th that its executives donated 840,000 won in neighbor-helping funds, joining the Hope 2022 Sharing Campaign donation movement.

The donation was collected by 14 executives of the Wangjo 1-dong Tongjang Association and will be used to support neighbors in need within the region through the Jeonnam Community Chest of Korea.

President Park Jin-sook said, “The executives of the Wangjo 1-dong Tongjang Association raised funds together to help neighbors struggling to get through the winter cold. Although it is a small contribution, I hope it brings warm comfort and hope to them.” She added, “It is the natural role of the Tongjangs to watch over and care for neighbors in difficulty, and we will continue to do our best to create a Wangjo 1-dong where everyone lives together in harmony.”

Since 2019, the Wangjo 1-dong Tongjang Association in Suncheon City has been providing scholarships (3 million to 11 million won annually) to economically disadvantaged students and elderly people through the ‘Happiness Scholarship Foundation.’ Last year, they formed a welfare blind spot discovery team called ‘Our Neighborhood Welfare Telescope’ to identify welfare crisis households and delivered various donations and supplies, actively practicing neighborly love through diverse activities.
