This event was organized using proceeds from kimchi sales made by the association at the 7th Changsu Local Food Discount Market held last month, where the members prepared kimchi themselves using local agricultural products.
On the day of the event, the members invited around 80 people who serve the community-such as the headmen of Changsu-myeon, senior citizens' association presidents, and heads of local institutions and social organizations-to Naong Cultural Space, where they served rice cake soup they had prepared themselves and expressed their gratitude.
The association also delivered 6 kilograms of rice cake for soup to each of the 28 senior citizen centers in the area, ensuring that the elderly could enjoy a warm meal together.
Chairwoman Jang Sookhee stated, "I am grateful to so many people who work hard for our community, and it is meaningful to share a warm meal with the elderly. We will continue to take the lead in volunteer activities for the betterment of our local community."
The Changsu-myeon Farm Housewives Association continues to contribute to the development and welfare of the community through various activities, including kimchi sharing for vulnerable groups and disaster recovery support.
