The Gyeonggi Fire Department Blood Donation Club and firefighters from Gyeonggi Province donated 119 blood donation certificates to the Korea Childhood Leukemia Foundation on November 8, ahead of the 64th Firefighting Day on November 9.


The donation was made possible through the voluntary participation of the club and firefighters, who have put their love for their neighbors into practice through regular blood donations.


The donation is intended to help children with cancer who face blood supply shortages during the winter receive treatment. It is especially meaningful that the warm gesture of firefighters, who protect lives on the front lines, has led to another act of giving in the local community.

In particular, the 119 donated blood donation certificates gave special meaning to the number "119," which symbolizes firefighting. The donation is significant because firefighters put into practice, through blood donation, the sense of duty represented by 119 as they rush to protect residents' lives in emergencies.



A representative of the Gyeonggi Fire Department Blood Donation Club said, "We hope our small gesture will offer some support to children with cancer who are enduring difficult chemotherapy treatments. As firefighters who protect the lives of Gyeonggi Province residents, we will continue our life-saving blood donation activities."
