Yeoju Agricultural Cooperative's Hometown Wives Association Donates Neighborly Aid to Yeoju City

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Eom In-yong] The Yeoju Agricultural Cooperative's Hometown Wives Association (Representative Hwang Myung-ja), along with Cooperative Director Lee Byung-gil, donated 5 million won worth of neighborly aid (116 bags of 10kg rice) to Mayor Lee Chung-woo of Yeoju City on the 18th.

This donation consisted of part of the proceeds from rice cake sales at the '2025 Yeoju Ogok Naru Festival,' which was donated to help struggling neighbors in the region. This charitable tradition has been continued for over a decade.

Mayor Lee Chung-woo said, "I sincerely thank Representative Hwang Myung-ja, Director Lee Byung-gil, and all members for their support despite difficult circumstances," and added, "I will ensure that the donated rice is delivered to those who truly need assistance, and will continue to make efforts to help Yeoju City become a warm and thoughtful welfare city."
