Paldal-gu Hwaseo 1-dong Practices Compassion for Neighbors with Potatoes

The Saemaul Leaders Council (Chairman Han Hyung-chul) of Hwaseo 1-dong, Paldal-gu, Suwon, held a heartwarming event on the 24th in which potatoes harvested from the Love Garden were delivered to neighbors in need.

At the potato harvest event, approximately 30 members of the Saemaul Council, Women's Association, and Reading Club members, despite the heat during the rainy season, delivered potatoes to 50 households of neighbors in difficult circumstances, including elderly people living alone and low-income families in the area.

Han Hyung-chul, chairman of the Saemaul Leaders Council, said, "We successfully harvested potatoes that we cultivated with our own sweat, and as we share love with neighbors in need to be of some help, the joy and sense of fulfillment have doubled," adding "In the second half of the year, we will take the lead in practicing compassion for our neighbors through activities such as one-day tea houses and kimchi-making events."
