100-Year-Old Senior's Beads of Sweat at Home... Filled Two Trucks

Community Security Council of Ipam-myeon, Yeongyang-gun, Gyeongbuk Donates Cleaning and Organizing Skills

Members of the Ipam-myeon Community Security Council are loading waste after tidying up the home of a solitary elderly person who is turning 100 years old on the 10th.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Kim Gwiyeol] The home of an elderly person living alone in the village has been thoroughly cleaned and organized.

This elder turned 100 years old this year. Although it was physically challenging and difficult for them to move around, making house cleaning and organizing hard, the neighboring residents offered their sweat as a gift for the elder's 100th birthday.

On the morning of the 10th, the Ipam-myeon Community Security Council in Yeongyang-gun, Gyeongbuk, carried out a talent donation activity by removing old furniture and various items from the home of the single elderly person who turned 100 years old.

Im Mo (female), born in 1922, who lives alone in Sanhae 1-ri, was currently relying on the Senior Daycare Center.

Due to environmental maintenance construction, the house's storage shed was demolished, and the items inside needed to be organized. Her son, living in Andong City, recently fractured his right arm, making it impossible for Im to manage alone, so he urgently requested help.

The members of the Ipam-myeon Community Security Council stepped up. The items inside the storage shed were as worn out as the 100 years of time. It was very difficult to clear them.

The trash collected that day amounted to the volume of two 1-ton trucks. The council members gathered and transported the waste to the Environmental Resource Center.

Her son, Kim Mo, said, "I could not have managed to clean it up at all, so I am very grateful to the neighbors who volunteered on such a hot day."

Jung Hyun-seok, the head of Ipam-myeon, said, "We will continue to work with the council members to actively visit and provide customized welfare activities for residents in need in the community."
