The event, held on the 10th, brought together community-based organizations in the area, including the Happo-dong Residents’ Autonomous Committee and the Tongwoohoe, which jointly donated 100 bags of 10 kg white rice (worth approximately 3.2 million won).


The donated rice was prepared to help local neighbors enjoy a warm holiday ahead of Seollal. The Happo-dong Council of Community Organization Heads delivered the rice to 100 vulnerable households, including seniors living alone in the district, sharing the true meaning of giving.


The Happo-dong Council of Community Organization Heads has been carrying out various volunteer activities for the development of Happo-dong, including events for seniors, and has continuously donated goods such as rice and ramen during holidays, putting neighborly love into practice.



An official from the Happo-dong Administrative Welfare Center said, "We are grateful to the Happo-dong Council of Community Organization Heads for their good deeds every holiday despite the difficult economic situation," adding, "As the sharing by local organizations provides great support to vulnerable groups, we hope that such sharing events will continue so that a warmer local community can be created."
