[Gochang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Jaegil] Jeonbuk Gochang-gun announced on the 24th that it will provide temporary emergency living support funds to low-income households from the 27th to August 1st.

The temporary emergency living support fund for low-income households is a subsidy aimed at alleviating the livelihood burden of low-income families and increasing their consumption capacity, and can be received at the administrative welfare center of the registered address.

The eligible recipients are expected to be about 4,500 households as of the 29th of last month, including basic livelihood security recipients, legally designated second-lowest income groups, and holders of legal single-parent family qualifications receiving child-rearing support.

The support amount varies from a minimum of 300,000 KRW (for one person) to a maximum of 1,450,000 KRW (for seven or more persons) depending on eligibility and household size, and will be paid via the High Gochang Card.

Meanwhile, recipients in welfare facilities will exceptionally receive the subsidy in cash form at the facility.

This emergency living support fund card can be used temporarily within Gochang-gun until December 31, and its use is restricted in entertainment, gambling, and leisure industries.

Jung Joong-ho, head of the Social Welfare Division of the county, said, “We hope that by promptly providing the emergency living support fund to residents struggling with soaring prices, it will be of some help.”
