The excellent volunteer mileage system, introduced for the first time in Uljin-gun, is a reward-based program that provides mileage points to volunteers who have completed more than 30 hours of volunteer work within a certain period, with the mileage awarded differentially according to the number of volunteer hours.


The mileage points are given in the form of points on the Uljin Love Card, ranging from a minimum of 50,000 KRW to a maximum of 100,000 KRW for volunteers who have worked from 30 hours up to over 200 hours.


The beneficiaries of this support are 398 volunteers from Uljin-gun who have volunteered for more than 30 hours during the period from July 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023. Among them, the volunteer with the longest service time volunteered for 333 hours and will receive benefits.


Volunteers who have received individual notifications can apply in person by bringing their ID and Uljin Love Card to the Uljin-gun Comprehensive Volunteer Center. Starting from November 15, the points can be used at any Uljin Love Card affiliated store.



County Governor Son Byung-bok stated, “We will make greater efforts to create a Uljin-gun where volunteers take pride and are respected,” and added, “We hope that the volunteer mileage system will serve as an opportunity to raise social awareness of the value of volunteer activities.”
