| The Tongyeong branch of the Shincheonji Volunteer Group is conducting an environmental cleanup along the coast of Sondeok Village on the 27th June |
“It was meaningful to see people with and without disabilities working together to clean up the environment. I'm proud I could make a small contribution to creating a cleaner ocean.”
On the 27th June, the Shincheonji Volunteer Group's Tongyeong Branch joined hands with the Korea Seafarers Disabled Welfare Association's Tongyeong Branch to carry out a coastal cleanup along Sondeok Village, and a volunteer member who participated in the volunteer work said this.
On that day, over 30 people gathered to clean up the waters, removing tossed fishing nets and ropes that were tangled deep in the ground along the coast and clearing piles of tree branches washed up by the waves. Volunteers amassed a total of 50 litres of waste, helping to create a cleaner ocean.
Meanwhile, this activity was held under Shincheonji Volunteer Group's nationwide 'Green Nature' programme, which is purposed to preserve a beautiful nature for posterity through wetland conservation activities, environmental cleanups for the protection of major facilities and cultural assets, disaster recovery activities, public awareness environmental campaigns, and the creation of flower paths in waste dumping areas.
