On March 9, A-PAD Korea arrived at Daegu, the most confirmed city in Korea.
We planned a project suitable for the size of the funding and proceeded quickly. COVID-19 virus doesn't wait for us. We should run faster than COVID-19.
A project was planned to deliver a proper meal of lunch boxes to 200 children at 13 local children's center in Suseong-gu, Daegu.
Almost local restaurants were closed because of COVID-19. We selected a few local restaurants near children's center to boost the local economy.
Thanks to the support, warm lunch boxes were delivered to the Daugu children's center.
Usually, children at the local children's center ate lunch at school and dinner at the children's center. Due to COVID-19, the beginning of school has been delayed and meal resolution has become difficult. Government provide 5,000 KRW(5$) coupon to children everyday. The restaurant was alomost closed. There were only a few items to eat(kimbap, ramen, etc). 5$ is not enough to have a proper meal.
Helping Daegu children project is necessary. Currently, only 200 children we can cover. There are more than 5,000 children waiting for help.
Daegu region's economy is disastrous. Families at the children's center have a greater impact. Conversations with family are disappearing. A small lunch box connects the conversation. We all know the power of a warm meal
Please support us. We are doing our best to help Daegu.
Thank you.
