The 'Anyone Care Project' is a program that provides customized care services to citizens who have difficulty with daily activities due to mobility issues and have no family to care for them, but do not receive public care services.


The service provider recruitment fields for this project include five basic service areas: ▲daily care ▲accompaniment care ▲residential safety ▲meal support ▲temporary protection. Organizations such as ▲home long-term care institutions ▲social welfare institutions ▲social enterprises ▲community self-support centers that can provide services in each field are eligible to participate.


Institutions wishing to apply can do so via email or by visiting the Welfare Policy Division of Hwaseong City Hall. The city plans to select service providers after reviewing the institutions' personnel management, safety management, quality control, and service performance capabilities.


Meanwhile, the Anyone Care Project allows usage for up to 15 days when a care gap occurs, regardless of income, assets, or age. Those with a median income of 120% or less can receive full coverage of service fees up to an annual limit of 1.5 million KRW, those with 120-150% of median income receive 50% support, and those exceeding 150% must bear the full cost themselves.



Hong Nomi, Director of Citizen Welfare Bureau of Hwaseong City, said, "Through this project, we plan to strengthen the public nature of care services and improve citizens' welfare satisfaction."
