Shincheonji Volunteer Group's Gangseo Branch Cleans Up Fallen Leaves and Gingko Trees Around Hwagok Station
| On 20th December, volunteers from the Shincheonji Volunteer Group's Gangseo Branch cleaned up fallen leaves and abandoned household waste in a green belt near Hwagok Station |
On 20th December, following recent strong winds, volunteers from the Shincheonji Volunteer Group Gangseo Branch carried out a street-cleaning effort, improving safety and walkability for local residents.
65 volunteers used blowers to collect fallen leaves, ginkgo nuts and household waste that had accumulated in the green belt from near Ujangsan Station to Hwagok Station.
In particular, fallen ginkgo nuts create a foul odour, and fallen leaves increase the risk of slipping. Therefore, this environmental cleanup was more than beautification - it helps prevent slips, falls, and other winter accidents.
Volunteer In-mo Kang (38, male, Hwagok neighbourhood), said, “It's rewarding to see the neighbourhood gradually become cleaner by participating in this volunteer activity every month.”
Meanwhile, this activity was carried out 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.
