The Saemaul Women's Association of Yeongdong 1-dong, Yeongtong-gu, Suwon City (headed by Gwon Ho-jeong) supported 16 households of elderly individuals living alone and people with severe disabilities in the area on the 14th with "Hope Meals" prepared with homemade side dishes to provide care services needed in the local community.
The association members shed sweat in genuine volunteer work despite the heavy rain that day, working diligently from early morning through purchasing ingredients, preparing side dishes, and delivering them directly.
Chairwoman Gwon Ho-jeong said, "We prepared warm meals with the mindset of supporting our elderly residents because they may be exhausted by heavy rain and extreme heat and could end up skipping meals or having poor nutrition," and added, "We will do our best to build a warm local community by finding neglected corners in our neighborhood."
