In the second part, quarantine activities were conducted at about 50 neighboring stores and vulnerable groups in the Unam-dong area, and spray-type sterilizing disinfectant was delivered as a preventive measure against COVID-19. The activities were carried out with the hope of providing some help during these very difficult times.

Representative Joo Jae-hwan said, “Although many people are enduring difficult times due to COVID-19, this was a warmer and more meaningful time thanks to the support project from the Gwangju Community Chest of Korea.”

He added, “Going forward, Gwangju Sarang Nanum Community will continue to contribute through quarantine activities to overcome COVID-19 together.”
