Woori Bank announced it will provide essential supply kits, named 'Woori Dundeunham,' to 9,722 households of seniors living alone ahead of the Chuseok holiday.
This initiative is part of Woori Financial Group's project 'Woori. Everyone. Us,' aimed at expanding the ecosystem of jobs for people with disabilities. The support items are sourced from products made by vocational rehabilitation facilities for people with disabilities, linking assistance for seniors with job creation for the disabled.
In collaboration with the Korea Vulnerable Senior Support Foundation, a designated agency for the Ministry of Health and Welfare's customized senior care program, Woori Bank will deliver essential supplies to approximately 810 households each month, totaling 9,722 households annually. Care workers will personally visit homes to deliver the items and check on the seniors' living conditions and well-being.
This year, the first distribution will provide kits to 810 seniors spending the Chuseok holiday alone. Each kit includes seven types of products from vocational rehabilitation facilities, such as first aid kits, anti-slip mats, canes, arm sleeves, and blankets. An informational brochure to prevent voice phishing scams will also be included.
