T-ara members keep their promise & volunteer to spend their time with senior citizens

T-ara recently opened up about their volunteer experience on February 1st.

With the help of charity organization 'Living Together With Others', the T-ara members volunteered to spend some time with the elderly that live alone. The girls along with Coed School's Hyo Young worked hard to deliver necessities and other goods to the elderly.

After their day was over, T-ara remarked, "We worked as hard as we could in the short time we were here, but I don't know if we were able to give as much as we wanted to."

"I think we received a lot more here today than we gave," they continued. "The elderly held our hands to keep us warm because they knew that we were cold and we could really feel their love and affection. I think this made us happier than winning a K-Chart win."

The T-ara members announced that they would spend some time volunteering if they came out on top on SBS 'Inkigayo' with "Lovey-Dovey" for three weeks straight, and fans were glad to see that the girls kept their promise.

The members who learned the joy of giving remarked, "We know that a lot of celebrities are spreading their love by different means, and if there are any stars who are still unsure about doing charity work, we urge you to join us. Even though we are only here for a short while, I think it would be great if a lot more people helped out."

The girls donated the $2,670 bonus they received from winning a 'triple-crown' on Inkigayo to the elderly, plus an additional $6,230 that was donated by their company. They also donated 250 sets of lotion and hand creme from 'Tony Moly' who they are currently modeling for, plus 260 pairs of long johns, 250 boxes of chicken, as well as 250 bags of rice.
