Gwangju Hyoryeong Senior Welfare Town (hereinafter referred to as Hyoryeong Town) and the Senior Citizens' Autonomous Committee carried out a "Briquette of Love Sharing" volunteer activity on November 21, targeting three low-income and vulnerable households in Yongjeon Village, Buk-gu, Gwangju.


A total of 34 people participated in this volunteer activity, including staff from Hyoryeong Town, members of the Autonomous Committee, and the Happy I International Volunteer Group. They personally delivered 300 briquettes to each of the three households struggling with heating during the winter, for a total of 900 briquettes. In particular, in alleys where vehicle access was difficult, volunteers formed a relay line to carry each briquette by hand, demonstrating their love for neighbors and adding a warm touch to the event.



Kyungnam Jung, Head of Hyoryeong Town Headquarters, said, "This briquette sharing event was a meaningful time created together by the members of Hyoryeong Town and the local community," adding, "I hope that this activity of delivering warmth will continue as a sustainable culture of sharing, rather than a one-time event."
