Goryeong-gun Delivers Happiness Gifts Through 'Sowon Postbox'
"We Grant Small Wishes"
The Goryeong-gun Community Social Security Council (Co-chairs: Lee Namcheol, Kim Jongtae) selected the recipients for August's "Wish Mailbox" through a subcommittee meeting and delivered gifts to them.
The "Wish Mailbox" project is a specialized initiative supported by the Gyeongbuk Community Chest of Korea's "Together Happiness Fund." Each month, wishes are collected, and priority is given to low-income and multi-child families to help support children.
One of this month's recipients said, "I wanted a bicycle so I could ride together with my friends, and I'm really happy that my wish came true. I am grateful to those who gave me this gift."
Another recipient shared, "I used to study lying on the floor at home, but now that I received a desk as a gift, I am very happy. Thank you for allowing my younger sibling to sit next to me and read books too."
Kim Jongtae, the co-chair, stated, "Even though these are small gifts, seeing the children happy makes me feel good. I would also like to express my gratitude to those who regularly donate to 'Together Happiness Fund (formerly Hope Plus)' and make these wonderful projects possible."
