Goheung-gun Daeseo-myeon, Community Security Council Takes Action to Help Vulnerable Groups

Support for Heating Supplies to Stay Warm During Winter

[Goheung=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Shim Jeong-woo] The Daeseo-myeon Community Security Council (Co-Chairmen Ryu Nam-jin and Song Hyung-du) in Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Song Gwi-geun) announced on the 16th that they provided heating supplies worth 5.4 million won to 68 vulnerable households in preparation for the winter cold, which is expected to arrive earlier than usual.

This heating supply support was made possible by purchasing 38 electric blankets and 30 winter blankets with designated donations from individuals and organizations in the local community, so that energy-vulnerable groups can spend a warm and healthy winter.

The council prioritized support for low-income households with old electric blankets that posed fire risks, and while adhering to quarantine rules, they checked on the well-being of residents and conducted pre-inspections to ensure a comfortable winter by verifying the insulation status inside the water meter insulation boxes to prevent water pipes from freezing during winter.

Ryu Nam-jin, head of Daeseo-myeon, said, “We appreciate the sharing for neighbors in need within the township, and we will do our best to discover customized projects suitable for local characteristics and support welfare blind spots.”

Meanwhile, the Daeseo-myeon Community Security Council is leading care and sharing practices through active volunteer activities such as checking on the well-being of elderly residents, distributing fans to vulnerable households for a cool summer, and supporting delicious shared side dishes.
