Korea National Oil Corporation Delivers Agricultural and Marine Products Packages to 200 Local Elderly Living Alone Households

Korea National Oil Corporation delivered agricultural and marine product packages worth 10 million won to 200 elderly households living alone through Ulsan Jung-gu Office.

The package delivery was prepared to support marginalized neighbors and small merchants in traditional markets who are struggling due to the local economic downturn. Since signing a sisterhood agreement with the Taehwa General Market Merchants Association in October 2019, this effort has been steadily continued every year since 2020.

The packages, created together with the Taehwa General Market Merchants Association, were composed of eight items considering the preferences of the elderly, including gomguk (beef bone soup), sesame oil, soybean milk, misutgaru (grain powder), and kongjaban (soybean side dish).

The delivery ceremony was attended by Yoon Young-chan, Deputy Mayor of Jung-gu, Lee Kang-su, General Affairs Director of Korea National Oil Corporation, and Jo Jin-ho, Secretary General of Ulsan Community Chest of Korea, among others.

Lee Kang-su, General Affairs Director of Korea National Oil Corporation, said, “We hope this package support will be a source of strength for neighbors and small merchants who are struggling due to the local economic downturn and will also help promote the consumption of local agricultural and marine products.”

This year, the Oil Corporation is also carrying out various social contribution activities targeting marginalized neighbors in need, including operating the With Global Family multicultural family communication program, supporting Korean language night classes for multicultural families, and the Dream Maker career and vocational training for students with disabilities.
