Established in 2014, the group currently has about 300 members and has been engaged in volunteer activities for neighbors in need within the community, including 16 natural cleanup activities, 12 charity events donating 10 million KRW, and 10 scholarship fund contributions totaling 20 million KRW.

At the general meeting, 35 outstanding volunteers who served as volunteer leaders were awarded commendations to encourage their achievements, and at the end, a scholarship fund of 3 million KRW was donated to the Gumi City Scholarship Foundation (Chairman Kim Jang-ho).

Group leader Kwon Young-hee expressed gratitude to the members who devoted themselves with warm hearts through volunteer activities this year and said, “Let us do our best to become a warm shelter in the local community and live together with neighbors in need.”

Mayor Kim Jang-ho said, “I am grateful to the members of the Gumi City Neulpureun Volunteer Group who always work together for neighbors in need with the thought that my small volunteer work becomes someone’s future,” adding, “Our society becomes more beautiful because of all of you who quietly serve neighbors with warm hearts in places unseen.”
