At 11 a.m. that day, the association held a "Lunar New Year Sharing Food of Love" event at the plaza of Seongnam City Hall.


This food-sharing event has continued for 21 years.


This food donation was joined by 30 food manufacturing and distribution companies, including Pangmani Co., Ltd., Mirae Well Food Co., Ltd., Serim Flavor Co., Ltd., CJ Seafood Co., Ltd., Gourmet Bagel Co., Ltd., Rang Company Co., Ltd., Joy Food Co., Ltd., and Aromaline Co., Ltd.


The donated items consisted of foods such as bread, dried laver, rice, beverages, and processed meat products that each company produces or handles.


On this day, about 70 people, including volunteers, relevant public officials, and company executives and employees, sorted the donated food by company and delivered items worth between 2.5 million and 3 million won per facility to facilities related to seniors, children, people with disabilities, women, homeless people, and multicultural families.


Cheon Sunguk, head of the Seongnam Food Association, said, "We will continue our food donation activities so that the joy of sharing can spread throughout the local community."



The Seongnam Food Association has revised its internal articles of association to change its name starting this year and to promote its social contribution activities in the community in a more systematic way.
