Sunchon-si Dosadong Ttukkoebi Talent Donation Group, from Home Repairs to Garden Volunteering
Home Repair Volunteer Service for Five Vulnerable Families and Garden Volunteering to Share Neighborly Love
[Suncheon=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] The Ddokkaebi Talent Donation Group in Dosadong, Suncheon City, announced on the 22nd that they conducted their second talent donation volunteer activity of the year by repairing and sharing services for five vulnerable households from No. 4 to No. 8.
This Ddokkaebi Talent Donation Group volunteer activity targeted elderly living alone, welfare emergency support recipients, and multicultural families. About 40 participants, including Dosadong resident autonomy committee members and administrative welfare center officials, took part in wallpapering, flooring, lighting and sink replacement, and thorough cleaning to provide new homes for neighbors in need.
On this day, the Dosadong Residents' Autonomy Association also newly maintained Ddokkaebi Park in the area to welcome spring.
They neatly organized the neglected park by removing weeds and pruning, then planted azaleas and loofahs.
They hoped it would become a new landmark and a comfortable resting place for residents of Dosadong, and they engaged in volunteer work undeterred by the spring rain.
Kim Seon-jung, chairman of the Dosadong Residents' Autonomy Association, said, “We tried to help our neighbors through various volunteer activities, including caring for marginalized neighbors and maintaining parks used by residents. Seeing many neighbors express their gratitude made it even more rewarding.” He added, “Although it is a warm spring, many marginalized neighbors around us cannot feel it. We will continue to pay attention to them and practice warm love-sharing so that this can continue. We will strive to help more neighbors through ongoing volunteer activities.”
