The Gwangju Community Chest of Korea (hereinafter referred to as Gwangju Sarangui-Yeolmae) announced on September 29 that the Korea Gas Corporation Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters had visited Nohwado and Bogildo in Wando County to carry out social contribution activities for children and residents in the island areas.

This initiative was organized to provide direct support for childcare and to ensure the safety of vulnerable households in island regions that have relatively less access to welfare services.

The Korea Gas Corporation Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters provided 3 million won each to two local children's centers in Nohwado and Bogildo, totaling 6 million won. The funds delivered to the Kkoye Local Children's Center in Bogil-myeon and the Chungdo Local Children's Center in Nohwado will be used to support the care and healthy development of children in the area.

Additionally, 5 million won was provided for the installation of gas timer cocks to help prevent gas accidents in vulnerable households in Bogil-myeon, and employees participated directly in volunteer activities for the installation. A gas timer cock is a safety device that automatically shuts off the gas valve after a certain amount of time when a gas stove is being used, thus preventing fire and gas accidents.

Through this social contribution initiative, the Korea Gas Corporation Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters provided a total of 11 million won to support childcare for island area children and improve the safety of vulnerable households. Employees also directly took part in installing gas timer cocks, contributing to a safer daily life for residents.

A representative from the Korea Gas Corporation Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters said, "It was meaningful to provide assistance directly to areas where welfare and safety support are difficult to reach due to geographical conditions," adding, "We will continue to carefully observe various parts of the local community and carry out social contribution activities that can provide practical help where it is needed."

No Jinseok, Secretary General of the Gwangju Sarangui-Yeolmae, said, "We are grateful to the Korea Gas Corporation Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters for visiting island communities in person and practicing warm sharing and volunteerism," emphasizing, "Regardless of location or distance, we will work together to ensure that our support reaches neighbors in need everywhere."
