Gyeonggi Province is accepting applications for the 'Healthy Fruit Support for Home-Care Children' project, which it is promoting as an independent initiative, from the 7th of this month until the 27th of next month.

The Healthy Fruit Support for Home-Care Children project is part of the 'Gyeonggi Province Children's Healthy Fruit Support Project' and provides 100g of fruit weekly as a snack to children using childcare facilities such as daycare centers for one year.

Applicants must reside in one of the 31 cities and counties within the province and be preschool home-care children currently receiving home-care allowances or parental benefits (cash) as of the application date.

Guardians of home-care children can apply easily without submitting additional documents by visiting Gyeonggi Civil Service 24 (gg24.gg.go.kr) or by bringing identification or a resident registration abstract (child), family relation documents, and other proof to the local town, township, or neighborhood community service center.

Once confirmed as a healthy fruit support recipient, they will receive a free delivery of a package of seasonal domestic fruits from the end of October through December. Home-care children can receive the fruit provided to children in childcare facilities in two separate deliveries at home.

Park Jong-min, Director of the Gyeonggi Province Agriculture, Fisheries and Life Sciences Bureau, stated, "We aim to provide seasonal fruits to children to help form balanced eating habits and contribute to expanding the market for local fruit farmers in the province."
