Jungnang-gu Declares 'Jungnang Donghaeng Sarangnet' to Build a Welfare Community

On the 19th, the 'Jungnang Donghaeng Sarangnet' Proclamation Ceremony Held
Focusing on Five Key Areas: Donation, Network Building, Talent Sharing, Health, and Education

Jungnang-gu (Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi) held a proclamation ceremony for the Jungnang-style welfare brand ‘Jungnang Donghaeng Sarangnet’ on the 19th at the basement auditorium of the district office.

‘Jungnang Donghaeng Sarangnet’ means ‘a welfare network for 400,000 Jungnang residents’ and aims to create a welfare ecosystem where local residents voluntarily participate and support each other.

At this proclamation ceremony, the meaning was enhanced by a special lecture given directly by a resident. A resident who has lived in Jungnang-gu for over 50 years shared experiences of giving and receiving help while living in Jungnang-gu, emphasizing that anyone can participate in ‘Jungnang Donghaeng Sarangnet’ and become a proud neighbor.

‘Jungnang Donghaeng Sarangnet’ connects residents through projects in five areas?donation, network formation, talent sharing, health, and education?on both online and offline platforms.

As part of ‘Jungnang Donghaeng Sarangnet,’ the Sharing Network entrusts the distribution function to the private organization, the Social Welfare Council, through a tripartite agreement among Jungnang-gu Office, the Community Chest of Korea, and the Jungnang-gu Social Welfare Council, allowing flexible responses to local characteristics and welfare demands.

Additionally, an ‘Online Hall of Fame’ system has been established to select and register outstanding donors and volunteers, spreading a social atmosphere of respect and honor for donors and volunteers, thereby encouraging voluntary participation from residents.

Furthermore, cooperation with local comprehensive social welfare centers provides spaces where residents can actually meet.

Moreover, through ‘Our Neighborhood Sarangnet,’ specialized projects by each dong (neighborhood) will be shared and joint projects among organizations promoted to expand resident participation. The district plans to operate a welfare academy to provide professional education to volunteers, offering various supports so that residents can feel pride and continue participating.

Ryu Kyung-gi, Mayor of Jungnang-gu, stated, "Jungnang Donghaeng Sarangnet will be an important turning point where residents cooperate and spread a culture of sharing," adding, "We will utilize welfare resources more efficiently and create a welfare community where residents voluntarily participate.”
