Gyeongsangbuk-do organizations conduct welfare outreach ahead of Chuseok

Various organizations in Gyeongsangbuk-do are conducting charitable activities and visiting social welfare facilities ahead of the Chuseok holiday.

Members of the Gyeongbuk Provincial Council visited numerous facilities across cities including Gyeongju, Pohang, Andong, Gimcheon, and Sangju. Council members delivered relief goods to elderly care centers, childcare facilities, and centers for the disabled, while also listening to the operational difficulties faced by staff and residents to help address welfare blind spots.

Andong Hospital, through its ‘Nanum 365 Volunteer Group,’ visited nine social welfare institutions in Andong, Yeongyang, Cheongsong, and Danyang. The hospital staff delivered donation items to various nursing homes and community centers as part of its ESG management initiatives. In addition to holiday donations, the hospital continues to provide medical volunteer services, including free oriental medicine treatments in areas previously affected by large-scale wildfires.
