Andong-si Dosan-myeon Saemaeul Women's Association Promotes Love Coffee Sharing Event
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Gwiyeol] On the 28th, the Saemaeul Women's Association of Dosan-myeon, Andong City, held a Love Coffee Sharing event for the underprivileged in front of the Dosan-myeon Administrative Welfare Center.
At the event, 17 low-income elderly living alone households in the area who are struggling were selected to receive one box of coffee worth approximately 510,000 KRW per village to practice neighborly love.
Members of the Dosan-myeon Saemaeul Women's Association have continuously volunteered by preparing food for various local events, and usually collect used clothes and pesticide bottles to generate funds, which are used every year to deliver goods to low-income families, leading efforts to improve the quality of life of local residents and support neighbors in need.
Kwon Jin-sook, president of the Saemaeul Women's Association, said, "Although it is a small gesture, I hope the elderly can spend the hot summer healthily," and added, "We will continue to strive to be a Dosan-myeon Saemaeul Women's Association that actively practices neighborly love."
