Gwangju Chungjang-dong 'Beating the Heat!' Sharing Healthy Drinks

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] On the 13th, Dong-gu Chungjang-dong in Gwangju Metropolitan City announced that it held the event "Overcoming the Heat! Sharing Refreshing Health Drinks" on the 12th for 50 low-income neighbors in need of care within the district.

Following last year, this event was organized by the Chungjang-dong Volunteer Camp (President Park Mi-sook), with local self-help organizations such as the Saemaul Women's Association preparing health drinks like misutgaru. Members of the Volunteer Camp visited each household in person to deliver the drinks and check on their well-being.

An elderly person who received the health drink that day said, "I had no appetite due to the early heat, but I am grateful for the misutgaru that I can eat as a meal replacement."

Im Kyung-sook, head of Chungjang-dong, said, "I thank the members of the Volunteer Camp who supported our neighbors in need of care both materially and spiritually again this year," and added, "We will continue to work together with the public and private sectors so that neighbors in need of care can live healthier lives within the community."
