Gwonseon-gu "Do You Know About Gwonseon Two·Roo·Mi?"

Gwonseon-gu (District Head Kim Jeong-su) announced on the 28th that it has newly launched a volunteer group called "Gwonseon Two·Roo·Mi," composed of civil servants from the district, starting from January 2013.

"Gwonseon Two·Roo·Mi" is short for "sharing broadly and generously," expressing the intention of Gwonseon-gu civil servants to share the warmth in their hearts with neighbors in difficult circumstances. Beginning this year, the 19 departments of Gwonseon-gu will take turns each month conducting sharing activities at three social facilities: Jungang Nursing Home and Subok Rehabilitation Center located in Gwonseon-gu, and Sunrise Village in the adjacent Hwaseong City to strengthen regional bonds.

On the 19th, the Tax Service visited Jungang Nursing Home and delivered facility cleaning and daily necessities, while the Department of Social Welfare visited Subok Rehabilitation Center to spend meaningful time playing therapeutic games and participating in sports with people with disabilities.

Additionally, on the 26th, the Administrative Support Division visited "Sunrise Village" in Hwaseong, with which it formed a partnership for the first time this year, and spent time engaged in various volunteer activities including pre-Lunar New Year deep cleaning, preparing lunch, feeding elderly residents with severe conditions, and making name tags for seniors.

An official from Sunrise Village said, "Sunrise Village has been operated with the help of many volunteers so far, and we are grateful that civil servants from nearby areas have come to volunteer despite the distance. We hope that today's volunteer work, along with self-reflection, will continue the spirit of filial piety of King Jeongjo, with the two cities passing down this tradition and continuing volunteer activities consistently."
