The donated white rice was placed in the Sapa Rice Jar located at the Sapa-dong Administrative Welfare Center. The 'Sapa Rice Jar' is a system that allows low-income households temporarily lacking rice to freely use rice stored in PET bottles. Thanks to donations from local organizations and benefactors, 1,070 kg of white rice was donated last year, benefiting 575 people.


Chairman Lee Kyung-ho said, "I hope this will be of some help to our marginalized neighbors. We will continue to practice sharing for the coexistence of our local community."



Hwang Seon-bok, head of Sapa-dong, said, "We deeply appreciate your concern and kindness toward the disadvantaged in our community. We ask for your continued support and interest in the future."
