“Please help children in war, civil war, disaster, and poverty-stricken areas~”

Celebrity ‘good deed angels’ are heading out to Myeongdong Street again this year ahead of Children’s Day.

Writer Noh Hee-kyung, Han Ji-min, Bae Jong-ok, Lee Jung-eun, Im Se-mi, Jo Hye-jeong, Baek Seung-do, Lee Sang-hee, singers Nan Ah-jin, Im Hyun-jung, and Tae Jong will participate in the ‘Gilbut JTS Street Fundraising Campaign’ held at Myeongdong Hana Play Park from 1 PM on the 3rd.

They gathered to help children in war, civil war, disaster and poverty-stricken areas and plan to spread good influence with many people participating in street fundraising.

‘Gilbut’, a social service group of broadcasting, film, and performing arts professionals, has been holding regular street fundraising events twice a year since 2004, ahead of Children’s Day.

Except for the four years when street fundraising was replaced with coal briquette volunteering due to COVID-19, the warm-hearted actions every year have been heartwarming.

Writer Noh Hee-kyung, who is leading the street fundraising, explained the purpose of the event, saying, “With our small efforts, someone can go to school, someone can get better, and someone can live.This is why we must never stop this small effort.”

The ‘Gilbut JTS Street Fundraising Campaign’ is jointly carried out by the UN international relief organization ‘Korea JTS’ and ‘Gilbut’.

The theme of the campaign is “Please help children in war, civil war, disaster, and poverty-stricken areas.” It was planned to provide food and medicine to children who are dying from chronic malnutrition, poor medical conditions, and endless poverty without even receiving treatment for simple illnesses.

The money raised through street fundraising will provide children with life-sustaining food, education to plan for their future, and hope for a new life.
