VISION FROM CRADLE TO HEAVEN

MISSION TO MAKE HEALTHY FAMILY FOR EVERY CHILD

HISTORY In 1971, the Eastern Social Wlefare Society was founded by Dr. Kim Duk Whang for the children and neighbors who were suffering from poverty.

For the last 40 years, we have directly and professionally helped them to live better life. We are proud of our service diversity such as single mothers, children and family in crisis, seniors and disabled people.

We are following Dr. Kim' s Legacy.

CHILD WELFARE SERVICES Since 1976

Three year old Ji-Won found in a babybox and cared by Jacob's home.

You will be happier tomorrow.

ANNUAL REPORT 2015

4

Ji-won doesn’t know who her mother is, nor where and how she was born because her biological mother gave her. She lives in Jacob's home. Since she was in Jacob's home, her caregiver Song-mi has devoted herself to take care of her. Now Ji-won calls her caregiver "mom". Last year, she went to amusement park and zoo and had fun time with her peers. She has become taller and mature just like any other children. We hope that the title "the child in the babybox with an umbilical cord," will not be the only thing that describes Ji-won's life.

Since 1976 SUPPORT FOR UNMARRIED MOTHERS

Meeyon, one of "EASTERN Happy Mom Club" members, who are raising children by themselves.

She is learning to be a mother.

ANNUAL REPORT 2015

When I decided to become an unmarried mother, I had no hope and there were not so many people supporting me. I knew this choice will change everything, but when I heard the heartbeat of my child, I had decided to be a mother. There have been many days when I have cried out because of prejudice of my neighbors. But since other unmarried mothers and I lived together in the EASTERN Community House for Single Mothers and Children, we have supported each other by encouraging each other. I can get strength out of it. I am trying to be a great mother by participating in "EASTERN Happy Mom Club" and being coached by parenting experts. I found a hidden talent in coffee making, so I am economically self-reliant by becoming a coffee barista.

EASTERN Seodaemun Community Center, Mrs. Shin-young

I can see a little bit of hope from EASTERN.

ANNUAL REPORT 2015

14

My husband's frequent outburst of violence and runaway from home have shaken my hopes of a happy marriage. Family finances were getting harder and harder and even raising a child is became a serious problem.

Then, the landlady suggested the Seodaemun Community Center and I got some practical help such as counselling. I could get some strength to lead my life not only in housing expenses but also in economic activities and child rearing. I thank the Seodaemun Community Center helper who has shown me hope when I was about to give up due to the weight of life.
