Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City announced on the 7th that donations and sponsorships have been continuously coming in ahead of Seol, the great national holiday.
The 'Nanum Storage' on the 2nd floor of the Usan-dong office building was fully stocked despite the economic downturn. This was thanks to over 10 organizations sending sponsorship goods worth more than 28 million won.

An anonymous donor gave 500,000 won, asking that it be used for youth preparing for independence.
Donations of 3.5 million won collected bit by bit by local residents and about 752 sponsorship goods from social organizations added warmth.
The donated sponsorship goods will be evenly distributed to care neighbors in Usan-dong who are in welfare blind spots, such as households at risk of social isolation and solitary death.
The Sinchang-dong Community Security Council (Chairman Eunjo Kim) recently supported 60 care neighbor households with food sets worth 2 million won and shared rice cake soup rice with 17 senior centers, worth about 1 million won.
