An elderly man in his 60s, a recipient of basic livelihood, handed over a gas cylinder out of nowhere to the Administrative Welfare Center, saying, "Please use it for people in need," and the gas cylinder was filled with coins.
On the 10th, an elderly man in his late 60s entered the Administrative Welfare Center in Sangjang-dong, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do and put down a 20kg gas cylinder.
This gas cylinder is a piggy bank that he made himself and said, "It's a small amount, but please use it for neighbors in need."
There were a lot of coins in the gas cylinder, which had a hole in it like a piggy bank.
Most of them were 10 won and 50 won coins.
All the coins were 188,310 won, which was not a small amount for my grandfather, a basic recipient.
The elderly man left the center, saying that he had collected coins for 27 years for the sake of his neighbors who were more difficult than himself, and asked not to reveal his name.
Upon receiving the gas cylinder full of love, the mayor said, "In honor of the precious wishes of the elders, we will make sure that the donations donated are well used for the vulnerable."
