Pyeongtaek Pharmacists Association Donates 60 'Silver Cars' to Pyeongtaek City

[Suwon Ilbo=Lee Su-won] The Pyeongtaek Pharmacists Association (Chair Choi Young-gyu) donated 60 'Silver Cars for Love' (walking assistance devices) valued at approximately 9 million won to Mayor Jung Jang-seon at the City Hall External Cooperation Division on the 18th.

The city plans to distribute the donated Silver Cars directly through 19 visiting nurses by region—southern, northern, and western areas—to vulnerable populations with mobility difficulties and elderly residents living alone among those who receive home health management services.

As part of its social contribution, the Pyeongtaek Pharmacists Association has sponsored 60 Silver Cars annually since 2014, helping a total of 630 elderly residents to date. The association also provides free monthly medical care for foreigners and practices sharing with underprivileged neighbors, contributing to coexistence and mutual prosperity in the local community.

Mayor Jung Jang-seon said, "I thank the Pyeongtaek Pharmacists Association for regularly practicing sharing with vulnerable elderly residents," adding, "I will do my best to ensure these items are properly delivered to those in need so that our elderly can lead healthier lives."
