The Hope Bridge National Disaster Relief Association (President Song Pil-ho) announced on the 30th that it has provided 770 emergency relief kits to disaster victims in the southern regions affected by extreme heavy rains.

The kits consist of 20 essential items including underwear, toothpaste, tissue paper, and protective masks, and were produced with the support of LH Korea Land and Housing Corporation, KRX Korea Exchange, and volunteer activities by their employees. The supported areas are ▲Busan ▲Gyeongnam Sacheon ▲Jeonnam Yeongam ▲Haenam. Hope Bridge plans to provide additional support upon requests from local governments and others.

Shin Hoon, Secretary General of Hope Bridge, said, "Although the southern regions suffered significant damage due to concentrated heavy rains, interest in Seoul and the metropolitan area remains low," adding, "We ask for much attention and participation in fundraising to support the disaster victims."
