The Saemaul Yeobunhoe (Women's Community Awareness Group) of Jowon 2-dong, Jangan-gu, Suwon City, led by President Kang Young-ju, visited the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Peace on June 28 and prepared birthday meals for elderly people living alone.
This event has been carried out by the Saemaul Yeobunhoe since 2008 as part of their practice of showing love to neighbors. By preparing heartfelt birthday meals for elderly people living alone, the organization aims to console their loneliness and help them celebrate their birthdays warmly.
On that day, public officials from the Jowon 2-dong Community Service Center also participated, preparing a cake with donations collected over time and presenting it to the birthday celebrants.
Kang Young-ju, President of the Saemaul Yeobunhoe, said, "I feel joy and fulfillment seeing the elderly recipients happy to receive the birthday meals."
