[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] The Gwangyang City Women's Association (President Kim Ji-yeon) held a 'Love Kimchi Sharing' event for senior citizens at the Gwangyang MG Saemaeul Geumgo Mudeung Branch on the 3rd, with the participation of about 50 members.


This event, held for the second time following June, involved the Women's Association making kimchi themselves for seniors who have difficulty engaging in outdoor activities due to COVID-19. They delivered the kimchi to 215 senior centers across 12 towns and townships in the region that provide lunch meals, while also checking on the well-being of the elderly.


Kim Ji-yeon, President of the Women's Association, said, "We made and delivered kimchi with the hope that the seniors, who have faced many difficulties in outdoor activities due to COVID-19, regain vitality and stay healthy," adding, "We are glad that the Gwangyang City Women's Association can come together during these challenging times."


Meanwhile, the Gwangyang City Women's Association annually prepares and delivers kimchi to the homes of elderly living alone and senior centers, and leads efforts to care for citizens' health through services such as senior center payment and cleanliness volunteering.



Additionally, they are conducting various activities, including the 'Kids, Eat and Go to School' campaign for high school students to promote work-life balance and family-friendly social development, which has been underway since last month and will continue until November.
