Geumcheon-gu community welfare and cultural initiatives

Overview

Geumcheon-gu has implemented several community-focused projects through public-private partnerships and local donation systems.

In late September, the district entered a third consecutive year of cooperation with the Myeongmun Foundation. This partnership involves a 27 million won donation to provide IT learning devices for university students in financial need and to distribute kimchi to 400 low-income residents for winter support.

Additionally, the district is utilizing funds from the Hometown Love Donation System, which has collected approximately 180 million won since 2023, to establish the Geumcheon-gu Municipal Youth Choir. This cultural initiative aims to support the emotional and artistic development of local youth aged 7 to 19 through recruitment and performances at local festivals and national competitions.
