Yeongdeok County and Community Chest of Korea Launch Joint Campaign to Promote Sharing Culture

Yeongdeok County in North Gyeongsang Province and the Yeongdeok County Sarangui-Yeolmae Volunteer Group held the "Hope Summer Chak!Chak!Chak! Sharing Campaign" in Yeonghae-myeon on the 28th to discover and recognize Good Stores that have settled in the region and to promote a culture of donation, such as fundraising for low birth rates.

Yeongdeok County and the Community Chest of Korea Sharing Volunteer Group are conducting a sharing campaign at Yeonghae Manse Market.

Participants in the campaign, including Yeongdeok County Governor Kim Kwangyeol and Volunteer Group Leader Cha Gwangmyeong, conducted street promotions and delivered plaques to newly designated Good Stores such as "Haneul Geurigo Bada Pension." They also visited two Good Stores in Yeonghae-myeon that have been operating for over 10 years to express their gratitude.

Subsequently, the participants gathered at the newly designated Good Store "Donghaean Cafe" to discuss ways to expand a culture of everyday giving and build community consensus in order to support those in welfare blind spots within the county.

Leader Cha Gwangmyeong said, "The challenges in spreading a culture of giving are the initiation and continuation of donations. Moving forward, we will take the lead in various promotional activities and encouraging donations tailored to our community to overcome these challenges."

In response, Governor Kim Kwangyeol stated, "I believe your acts of sharing will become a spark of hope for neighbors who do not lose hope despite difficult circumstances. I hope we can join forces and work even harder to build a robust welfare safety net where no one is left behind."
