Gwangju Urban Railway Corporation Conducts Year-End and New Year Volunteer Work to Improve Housing Conditions for Underprivileged Groups

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Gwangju Metropolitan Rapid Transit Corporation (President Jo Ik-moon) carried out a talent-sharing volunteer activity to improve living environments to help underprivileged groups have a warm winter during the year-end and New Year holidays.

According to the corporation on the 26th, about 10 employees from the Technical Operations Department recently learned that Mr. A, a person with an intellectual disability living alone without a guardian in Duam-dong, Buk-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City, was struggling to live alone, and began repairing and cleaning up his house.

The corporation’s volunteer team first replaced old lighting fixtures, outdated switches, and electrical outlets inside the house to prevent accidents such as electric leakage.

They then replaced the kitchen sink, upper cabinets, and faucets, and installed fire extinguishers and detectors to improve the safety of the living environment.

In addition, they replaced faded wallpaper and vinyl flooring with new products to create a hygienic and bright living space, and delivered items such as rice, ramen, and bottled water, wishing Mr. A a warm and comfortable winter.

President Jo Ik-moon said, “We gathered the hearts of the corporation’s family to ensure a safe and warm winter for our neighbors in need,” adding, “We will continue to leverage the corporation’s expertise and technology to help improve the lives of local residents.”
