[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] Ms. Dau Thi Huong, a Vietnamese marriage immigrant residing in Miryang-si, Gyeongnam (operator of Gamaseot Tongdak), and Ms. Son Young-hee, director of Supssokyojeong Kindergarten, visited the Miryang Volunteer Organizations Council on the 8th and donated 3,000 KF94 masks.

The two donors are sister-in-law and older sister-in-law; Ms. Huong became family with Ms. Son through international marriage and migration to Korea.

The donors said, "As the COVID-19 situation has prolonged, we wanted to contribute even a little to children from single-parent families and elderly people who have to keep buying masks."

The donated masks will be distributed to marginalized neighbors such as children from single-parent families and elderly living alone through the Miryang Volunteer Organizations Council.

Chairperson Lee Myung-sook expressed gratitude, saying, "Despite the difficult situation caused by the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, we thank you for practicing sharing for marginalized neighbors, and the donated items will be properly delivered during home visits to underprivileged families."
