The Chungcheong branch of the World Educational Cultural Aid donated 20 bags of rice (10 kg) to the Okcheon-eup Community Security Council on the 16th.

The World Educational Cultural Aid is an NGO under the Ministry of Education. It is a relief organization that helps children in underdeveloped countries become self-reliant by providing them with opportunities to prevent the current poverty from recurring through educational support, cultural exchange, and cooperation.

Heo Jin-hyuk, head of the Chungcheong branch, said, “We hope that this will be an opportunity to participate in creating a community where people live together by delivering rice to low-income families in Okcheon-eup who are struggling due to the prolonged coronavirus pandemic.”

Okcheon Town Mayor Hwang Soo-seop said, “We are grateful to the World Educational Cultural Aid for practicing warm sharing in times of greater difficulty than ever before, and we will provide support where necessary to ensure that good intentions are conveyed.” /Okcheon=Reporter Neunghee Lee
