Ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday, the Songsan-myeon Residents' Autonomous Committee in Hwaseong City (Chairman Nam Ki-cheol) delivered 700kg of rice, 35 boxes of instant noodles, and 35 sets of snack gift packages to 35 households including young heads of households and elderly residents living alone, it was announced on the 19th.

The rice delivered that day was cultivated directly by the residents' autonomous committee members from spring through fall, including transplanting and harvesting, with the rice paddy provided by Committee Chairman Nam Ki-cheol.

Additionally, the instant noodles and snack sets were prepared with membership fees collected by the residents' autonomous committee members through collective contributions.

In particular, residents' autonomous committee members visited each household directly to check on the well-being of the young heads of households and elderly residents and to see if there were any inconveniences.

Songsan-myeon Chief Yeo In-gil said, "It was a day to experience once again that small gestures of care come together to create great joy," and added, "Going forward, we will continue to implement warm administration that embraces and cares for marginalized neighbors."
