종교법인의 사회복지재원 다양화 방안 연구 - 불교계를 중심으로 -

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find implications through how social welfare facilities are providing the necessary resources for social welfare activities in a crisis where social welfare resources in the public sector are exposed to their limitations and how to secure social welfare resources that are being carried out in a different way in the Buddhist community. The religious community operates social welfare facilities based on religious values, provides services directly to local residents, and plays a role as a provider of social services. The Buddhist community is an independent organization under the Korean Buddhist Jogye Order, and the Korean Buddhist Jogye Order Social Welfare Foundation, established in 1995, provides social welfare resources by establishing a regional Buddhist welfare network, such as an operation support temple system that designates "one temple one facility" and a social welfare corporation centered on the parish headquarters based on 25 parish headquarters and about 2,300 temples scattered across the country. This can be evaluated as a unique way to raise funds that can only be attempted by the Buddhist community. Through this, it is expected that it can be linked to propaganda activities by inducing local residents' interest in social welfare and forming a positive image of Buddhism.
