[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] 'SB Global Healthcare,' a mask manufacturer located in Yangju, Gyeonggi Province, donated 1 million masks to Gyeonggi Province and the Gyeonggi Social Welfare Community Chest, requesting that they be distributed to low-income residents in the province.

On the 20th, Gyeonggi Province held a handover ceremony at the Gyeonggi Provincial Government Office in Suwon, hosted by the Gyeonggi Social Welfare Community Chest, attended by Governor Kim Dong-yeon of Gyeonggi Province, Lee Soon-sun, Chairman of the Gyeonggi Social Welfare Community Chest, Lee Sang-bong, Chairman of SB Global Healthcare, CEO Lee Seung-hyun, and Kim Mi-sun, Secretary General of the Hanam City Food Bank.

On this day, SB Global Healthcare donated 1 million masks worth approximately 630 million KRW for low-income residents in the province. The masks entrusted to the Gyeonggi Social Welfare Community Chest will be distributed to people facing difficulties, such as the near-poor, elderly living alone, and those in urgent livelihood crises, through food banks and markets within the province.

Governor Kim Dong-yeon expressed his gratitude, saying, "Volunteering and donating have an addictive quality that those who have never done it do not know. At first, it may be self-satisfaction, but this addiction spreads not only to oneself but also to those around. I thank you for making such a generous donation today. I hope that the purpose of the donation will be well realized so that residents in need can benefit."

Lee Sang-bong, Chairman of SB Global Healthcare, responded, "The recent spread of COVID-19 is worrisome. I hope that the masks delivered this time will be a small help to the low-income and marginalized groups in the province."

Meanwhile, Governor Kim Dong-yeon was appointed as the honorary chairman of the Gyeonggi Social Welfare Community Chest on the same day.
