Seocho-gu Signs Business Agreement with World Bridge Express on August 5 to Launch Free Moving Support Service 'Seoripul Express' for Low-Income Vulnerable Groups (Basic Livelihood, Single-Parent, Near-Poor), Second Time Since 2015... Support Provided Once a Month for One Household, Residents Wishing to Use Service Must Apply at Local Community Center One Month Before Moving
[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Seocho-gu (Mayor Eunhee Jo) signed a business agreement with the moving specialist company World Bridge Express (CEO Cheol Byun) on the 5th and launched the moving support service "Seoripul Express" for low-income vulnerable groups within Seocho-gu.
'Seoripul Express' provides free moving services once a month for one household within 2.5 tons to vulnerable groups (basic livelihood security recipients, single-parent families, and near-poor) moving within Seocho-gu, supported by World Bridge Express.
Residents wishing to use the service can apply at their local community service center one month before moving.
Seocho-gu and World Bridge Express previously supported free moving services for low-income vulnerable groups through the "Happy Free Moving Support" project in 2015, and this year marks their second collaboration.
The district plans to actively identify vulnerable groups wishing to receive moving support through close cooperation between community service centers and 17 private welfare facilities, prioritizing support for single disabled persons and elderly living alone without family.
For inquiries regarding 'Seoripul Express,' please contact the Seocho-gu Welfare Policy Division or your local community service center.
Mayor Eunhee Jo stated, "During this difficult time due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, I sincerely thank CEO Cheol Byun of World Bridge Express for showing interest and love for neighbors in difficult circumstances and extending a helping hand first. Moving can be a significant psychological and economic burden, so I am glad that we can at least alleviate the economic burden."
