Cheongyang County in South Chungcheong Province announced on July 10 that its strategy for promoting the Hometown Love Donation System had been selected as a nationwide best practice and was presented at the 'Policy Discussion on Overcoming the Disappearance of Farming and Fishing Villages and Revitalizing Local Areas' held at Kangwon Land on July 9.

This discussion forum was co-hosted by the Presidential Committee on Agriculture, Fisheries and Rural Policy (Chairman Jang Taepyeong) and the National Association of County Governors of Rural Areas (President Choi Seungjun, Governor of Jeongseon). Under the theme 'Region-Led Agricultural Policy: Changing the Future of Rural Areas,' the event was organized to discuss ways to overcome the crisis facing farming and fishing villages and to pursue sustainable development.

On this day, County Mayor Kim Dongon shared the strategies and achievements of the donation system under the theme 'Hope of Cheongyang, Blossoming through Donation.'

Mayor Kim stated, "From the early days of introducing the Hometown Love Donation System, Cheongyang County has achieved meaningful results in expanding donation inflows, activating designated donations, and linking with public interest projects through customized planning that reflects the unique characteristics of the region."

In particular, the signing of MOUs with public institutions and the operation of 'Cheongyang County Promotion Day' were cited as representative cases that significantly contributed to the spread of the donation culture, drawing considerable attention.

Mayor Kim emphasized, "The sustainable future of farming and fishing villages begins when the region itself designs and implements its own policies. Going forward, together with the residents, we will continue to develop a Cheongyang-style development model through the Hometown Love Donation System and other various region-specific policies."
