Choi Ho-gwon, mayor of Yeongdeungpo District, participated in volunteer work cleaning rainwater drains around Daerim 1-dong on the morning of the 10th in preparation for the rainy season, marking 'Volunteer Day.'


'Volunteer Day' is held on the first Saturday of every month, when Yeongdeungpo District officials and volunteers carry out joint public-private volunteer activities. Since the proclamation ceremony of 'Volunteer Day' in February this year, public and private sectors have been steadily conducting volunteer work together every month.


Mayor Choi inspected the inside of the rainwater drains in preparation for the rainy season and thoroughly cleaned leaves, cigarette butts, and other debris from the drains. He also posted stickers prohibiting the illegal disposal of cigarette butts next to the rainwater drains.



Choi Ho-gwon, mayor of Yeongdeungpo District, said, "I hope that through Volunteer Day, a joy shared once a month, the public and private sectors will work together to create a better city to live in." He added, "We will do our best to prevent flooding damage during the summer by focusing on managing rainwater drains and sewage pipelines and to create a pleasant residential environment."
