Throughout the event venue, a variety of experience and participation programs-including the children's flea market, flower arrangement activities, and a dance battle-captured the attention of families. Thanks to the children's witty salesmanship and the warm participation of residents in sharing, Dongnak Park was filled with energy and laughter all day long.

In particular, a blood donation campaign of love was held at one corner of the venue, where many Gumi residents donated precious blood, personally practicing the value of sharing life.

The approximately 50 blood donation certificates collected that day will be used to save precious lives, and the proceeds of about 1 million won from the snack booth will also be donated at the end of the year to support underprivileged groups. In addition, around 50 members voluntarily participated in on-site volunteer work, further enhancing the warm atmosphere of sharing.

Representative Lee Sanghyuk said, "We continue this event every year with the belief that small acts of kindness can save great lives. This year was especially meaningful as we were able to share the value of life through blood donation, sharing, and the flea market with children."

A Gumi City official stated, "It was heartwarming to see citizens sharing kindness with one another. We will continue to work together so that a culture of sharing and volunteerism, centered on the residents, can spread even further."

Citizens Together, founded in March 2022, is a nonprofit organization that leads the creation of a community based on sharing and mutual growth by conducting various public interest activities such as the blood donation campaign of love, environmental cleanup volunteer work, and support for neighbors in need, as well as operating a disaster response task force team year-round to provide active support in times of disasters such as heavy rain and typhoons.
