Sancheong Senior Club Opens 'Eomeoni Bapsang Project Team'
Support Project for Senior Employment and Retirement Activities
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Sancheong-gun, Gyeongnam, has opened the ‘Eomeoni Bapsang Project Group,’ an activity space for the elderly to live a vibrant life.
‘Eomeoni Bapsang’ is a senior job and retirement activity support project group operated by the Senior Club, a senior job support organization in Sancheong-gun.
The business is located on Deokgyero, Sancheong-eup. About 50 people attended the opening ceremony held on the afternoon of the 10th, including officials from Gyeongnam Province and Sancheong-gun senior job departments, Sancheong Senior Club officials, elderly participants of Eomeoni Bapsang, and local residents.
‘Eomeoni Bapsang’ is a market-type project providing jobs for seniors aged 60 and over in Sancheong-gun.
It is expected to contribute to community integration by not only serving warm food made with a mother’s heartfelt touch but also delivering leftover side dishes sold on the day to vulnerable groups in Sancheong-eup.
The county also plans to use 10 million KRW in provincial funds secured through selection in the New Senior Project Development Fund contest as project expenses.
