Yongin City Offers 'Beolcho Delegation' as a Thank-You Gift for Hometown Love Donations

Add Local Currency and Crafts to Return Gift Items

'If you donate to hometown love, we will provide mowing service on your behalf.'

Yongin City, Gyeonggi Province, recently held a hometown love donation gift selection committee and announced on the 4th that it has added three items to the gift list: mowing service discount coupons, local currency (Yongin WayPay), and crafts.

According to the 'Ordinance on the Collection and Operation of Yongin City Hometown Love Donations,' the city provides local specialties as gifts to donors up to 30% of the donation amount as a token of appreciation.

Accordingly, donors receive discounts on mowing services operated by the Yongin City Forestry Cooperative. Donors can purchase discount coupons equivalent to 30% of their donation amount to use when contracting the mowing service.

The mowing service cost varies depending on travel distance and surrounding conditions, but generally costs around 90,000 KRW per grave. If the mowing area exceeds 50㎡, an additional 10,000 KRW is charged per 25㎡ unit, and for mowing two or more graves within the same cemetery area, an additional 50,000 KRW is charged per grave. To use the service, inquiries or prior consultations must be made by phone or visit to the Forestry Cooperative.

The local currency can be used at small businesses in the Yongin area with annual sales of 1 billion KRW or less. At hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, postpartum care centers, and Yongin Central Market, it can be used at businesses with annual sales up to 3 billion KRW.

In addition, the gifts include crafts such as lacquered chopsticks and lacquered sake cups, and mother-of-pearl mood lamps made by Master Craftsman Ok Seungho, who was selected as the 10th Yongin City Master Craftsman.

Hometown love donations can be made through the 'Hometown Love e-um' website and NongHyup Bank. When donors receive gifts, they can select the desired items on the same website.

Meanwhile, besides the three newly added items, Yongin City provides 26 types of gifts in 9 categories, including JoaYong character goods, agricultural products, livestock products, processed agricultural products, cookie sets produced by organizations for the disabled, and Baekokmi Village well-being snacks made through senior job projects.
