Goheung-gun Promotes 'Sharing Love Firewood' Event

Providing Forest Project Byproducts as Firewood for Heating

[Goheung=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Shim Jeong-woo] Jeonnam Goheung-gun (Governor Gong Young-min) announced on the 13th that it will promote the "Sharing Love Firewood" event, which supports firewood for heating to 85 vulnerable households in the area using forest byproducts generated from forestry projects.

The "Sharing Love Firewood" event is a sharing activity in which Goheung-gun collects logging byproducts from forestry projects such as annual forest maintenance projects, processes them into firewood for heating to make them convenient for residents to use, and provides them free of charge to neighbors in need within the region.

This year, from the 13th to the 23rd, over a period of 10 days, firewood for heating will be directly delivered to each household using traditional stoves or wood boilers among vulnerable groups to help them spend a warm winter.

A Goheung-gun official said, "We have been conducting the 'Sharing Love Firewood' event for several years, and we will continue to expand social sharing policies to help reduce fuel costs for vulnerable groups who are struggling due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and high oil prices."
