The volunteer activity held on the 21st was a meaningful time of sharing and neighborly love, with 15 Welfare Family members including President Jo Eun-sook participating in preparing side dishes, serving lunch, washing dishes, and cleaning.

Jo Eun-sook, president of the Welfare Family Volunteer Association, said, “We conducted free meal service volunteer activities to help the marginalized and those in need, but it was a time when the volunteers themselves felt more moved and fulfilled.” She added, “We will continue to strive to realize a welfare society for marginalized neighbors and socially vulnerable groups through such volunteer activities.”

Bohyeon House, established in 1998, provides free daily lunch and lunchbox delivery to about 250 low-income people in the district.

Also, Choi Kyung-chul, head of Odongdong who participated in the volunteer work, encouraged the staff and volunteers of Bohyeon House who are dedicated to free meal service for vulnerable groups and listened to the difficulties on site.
