The Community Chest of Korea (Chairman Kim Byungjun) announced that the Korea Freedom Federation (President Kang Seokho) donated 50 million won on April 23 to support the recovery efforts for wildfire damage in the Yeongnam region.
The donation was raised through the voluntary participation of members from the Korea Freedom Federation headquarters as well as branches in Daegu, Gwangju, Daejeon, and other locations. It will be used to support the stabilization of daily life and disaster recovery for residents affected by the wildfires in the Yeongnam region.
Kang Seokho, President of the Korea Freedom Federation, said, "I would like to express my deepest condolences to those who are suffering due to the unexpected wildfires," and added, "We hope that the heartfelt contributions collected by our members nationwide will provide even a small amount of support to the affected residents."
