[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yukbong] Buk-gu, Gwangju City announced on the 9th that it will operate a ‘Permanent School Uniform Sharing Market’ together with the Buk-gu Saemaeul Association.

The school uniform sharing market, which started operating from this day, is one of the ‘Bitgoeul Shared Buk-gu’ projects and began in 2015.

Buk-gu established a ‘Permanent Sharing Market’ in 2020 with the Buk-gu Saemaeul Association to spread a culture of sharing and sharing in daily life.

In particular, to encourage participation in school uniform sharing among middle and high schools in the district, a cooperative system was established by signing a business agreement to promote the school uniform sharing movement with the Buk-gu Saemaeul Association and the Dongbu Office of Education.

At the Permanent School Uniform Sharing Market, school uniforms donated by students, residents, and uniform companies, as well as shirts, blouses, pants, and skirts are sold for 2,000 won, school bags for 3,000 won, and jackets for 5,000 won.

The proceeds obtained here are donated annually to the Buk-gu Scholarship Foundation.

Director Moon In said, “I hope that many parents and students will take interest in and use the Permanent School Uniform Sharing Market, which has various meanings such as sharing, sharing, and resource recycling, and I expect it to help households struggling due to COVID-19 even a little.”
