On the 13th, Suwon City held the '2023 First Half Child Meal Committee' and decided to provide meal expenses to 34 children in welfare blind spots.

On the 13th, Suwon City in Gyeonggi held the '2023 First Half Child Meal Committee' meeting at the city hall video conference room and decided to provide meal support to 34 children in welfare blind spots.

The Child Meal Committee, operated under the ordinance supporting low-income children, plays a role in deliberating matters such as investigating and selecting children eligible for meal support, and checking and improving the progress of child meal projects.

At the meeting, the committee selected children who did not meet the meal support criteria but were judged to need meals due to concerns about food deprivation as recipients of meal support.

Additionally, a plaque of appreciation was awarded to Kim Jeongdon (Head of the Korean Food Service Industry Kwonseon-gu Branch), who has served as chairman for the past six years and whose term ends at the end of July.

Currently, Suwon City provides meals to a total of 3,179 children, including 1,451 children using the G Dream Card and 1,728 children attending local children's centers.

A Suwon City official stated, "The child meal support project is an essential program to prevent food deprivation among growing children and improve their nutritional status," adding, "We will actively identify children at risk of food deprivation and strive to ensure that children in the region receive nutritious meals."
