Elder Poverty in South Korea

REPOST  @asianbossmedia “Either we die from the virus or the hunger.” ⁣⁣

With the pandemic sweeping the globe and placing thousands under lockdown, it’s become an especially challenging time for seniors in poverty. Schools, workplaces and many other public facilities shut down. But so have the welfare centers and soup kitchens, leaving impoverished elderly stripped of the one and only place where they were able to get a free, hearty meal to survive the day.⁣

The Korea Legacy Committee (KLC, @korealegacy), strives to support the struggling senior citizens of Korea during these challenging times through a regular meal program.⁣

This is our biggest fundraising effort to date. We’re collaborating with the Korean Legacy Committee (KLC) to serve meals to homeless elders who have nowhere else to go during the COVID-19 pandemic and you can do your part to contribute. ⁣
