Drawing Contest for Underprivileged Children Held in Dongtan, Hwaseong

A drawing contest for underprivileged children will be held in Dongtan, Hwaseong.

Emart Dongtan branch announced on the 12th that it will hold a "Love for Earth, Love for Environment Drawing Contest" in collaboration with Naraewool, a complex welfare town located in Neung-dong, Hwaseong, targeting disadvantaged children in the local community.

The drawing contest is planned to give underprivileged children an opportunity to showcase their talents and to allow them to explore their imagination with the theme of environmental conservation and practical actions in daily life.

Submissions are limited to elementary school children in the local area recommended by Naraewool. The contest will accept entries from the 15th to the 22nd, followed by judging, with prizes awarded for outstanding works.

The manager of Emart's Dongtan branch, who is overseeing the event, stated, “We see more wasteful behavior in our society than conservation-minded practices,” and added, “We planned this event to create an opportunity for elementary school students to reconsider environmental protection and to develop habits of resource conservation and environmental protection.”

He further stated, "Going forward, Emart will take the lead in environmental protection and do its best to undertake more projects for local development."
