[Asia Economy Reporter Kwangho Lee] Shinhan Bank announced on the 27th that it will support cooling devices and nutritional drinks to low-income elderly households in preparation for the heatwave that has officially begun, through the Korea Association of Senior Welfare Centers.

This support was prepared for elderly people who find it difficult to even secure individual cooling devices in a situation where it is hard to use local shelters or senior welfare centers due to COVID-19, despite the continuous heatwave lasting for days.

Shinhan Bank will provide 500 fans and 300 dehumidifiers to 800 low-income elderly households selected through 317 senior welfare centers nationwide affiliated with the Korea Association of Senior Welfare Centers, and will also deliver 800 sets of summer health nutritional drinks for the seniors' health.

From 2018 to 2020, Shinhan Bank has continuously supported the elderly through the THE Dream Sarangbang project by improving rest areas and informatization classrooms, providing PCs, and conducting digital financial education at 60 senior welfare centers and senior citizen centers nationwide.

Jin Ok-dong, the bank president, said, "Shinhan Bank will continue to support those in socially difficult situations with sincere activities that embody the true meaning of social contribution, and will work together to expand the social safety net."
