Leading the Way to Realize Beautiful Local Communities Living Together

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Goheung County (Governor Song Gwi-geun) Community Security Council announced on the 9th that, in celebration of the Lunar New Year, it received 14 million KRW in support from the Jeonnam Social Welfare Community Chest and plans to provide 100,000 KRW each to 146 residents who have been experiencing various difficulties due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, in cooperation with the 16 Eup and Myeon Community Security Councils (Representative Chairman Oh Geon-jong, hereinafter referred to as the ‘Eup and Myeon Councils’).

The Goheung County Community Security Council (Chairman Kim Yeon-sook, hereinafter referred to as the ‘County Council’) is organized and operated with the goal of discovering neighbors in difficult situations who are in welfare blind spots in the region and realizing a beautiful local community where no residents are left isolated by linking with institutions and organizations to live together.

The 16 Eup and Myeon Councils have continuously spread small acts of sharing love to neighbors in welfare blind spots through projects such as ‘Creating Dream Seed Savings Accounts’ for newborns, ‘Wireless Lamp Remote Control Project’ for elderly with mobility difficulties, and ‘Delivering Happiness Blankets’ for grandparent-grandchild households, by receiving goods and financial support worth approximately 170 million KRW from local philanthropists and institutions and organizations.

The county plans to strengthen support so that the councils can be activated by enhancing communication and consensus on neighborly love through small meetings held at least once per quarter with council members and continuously discovering creative new policies.
