Uijeongbu City Ganeung-dong Community Center (Director Bae Eun-kyung) announced on December 30 that the Gongrip Bitnuri Daycare Center (Director Park Young-jin) donated 401,000 won to help neighbors in need.
Public Bitnuri Daycare Center is a facility that cares for infants and toddlers from dual-income families, and has been practicing sharing by participating in the ‘100-day Love Relay Baton Pass’ campaign every year. This donation was made with money that the children have carefully saved in 10 and 50 won coins each over the past six months.

“It is truly touching to see the young sprouts practicing love for their neighbors,” said Bae Eun-kyung, the head of the village, expressing her gratitude, adding, “We will deliver the carefully prepared donations to our neighbors in need during the cold winter.”
