4 KASF 40 Years GOALS The Korean American Scholarship Foundation (KASF) seeks to: 1. Assist Korean American Students in their pursuit of academic and personal achievements, 2. Encourage community and civic service as an integral part of leadership development, and 3. Nurture the sense of pride and confidence in Korean cultural heritage and tradition. SCHOLARSHIPS CHAIR SCHOLARSHIPS Chair Scholarships are established through a one-time donation of $20,000 or more by individuals and corporations for a life-time scholarship. A donor can request a specific academic major or school for the scholarship. Each student receives $1,000. DESIGNATED SCHOLARSHIP Designated Scholarships have been established to reward students in specific fields. The contribution can be made as a one-time contribution or on a continual basis. Each student receives $1,000 or more. GENERAL SCHOLARSHIP General Scholarships are provided by the funds generated from various fund-raising activities and/or other donations. They are available to students in various academic fields and backgrounds and each student receives from $1,000 to $2,000. HIGH SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENT AWARD High school juniors are eligible to apply for the High School Achievement Award. Selection is based on academic achievements including PSAT scores, community service, talent and leadership. Each student receives $200 or more. QUALIFICATION A student currently enrolled in a full-time undergraduate or graduate program is qualified to apply for a KASF scholarship. The scholarship recipient is selected on the basis of financial need, academic achievement, school activities, essays, and community service.

5 Remarks Walter K. Park <Founder > Since President Seung Man Rhee s government controlled currency exchange rates after Korea s liberation from Japan, many people in Korea who wanted to go to America for business or immigration were forced to give up their dreams. Students who yearned to study abroad got frustrated and those who had already came and studied had to work as laborers to earn their living expenses and tuition due to hardship with remittance from Korea. As a result, discussions about organizing a scholarship foundation started amongst students and a decision was made to raise funds through a year-end party and recital in Washington, D. C. in The concert was successful and raised about $300. However, it was impossible to establish a scholarship with that amount of money. They handed me that small amount of money and suggested that I, who was an advisor to the Korean Students Association in D.C. at the time, build a scholarship foundation with it. I was deeply moved by their desire to help other students and invited local supporters to establish a scholarship organization without any objections. It was called The Scholarship for Korean Students in America, and was changed to the Korean American Scholarship Foundation a few years later. It has not been easy to run this scholarship foundation for the past 25 years, but encouragement, advice, and support from fellow Korean-Americans made it possible for this organization to keep on. I am also grateful to the directors who have led this foundation with sincere dedication. I believe the publication of the history of their blood and sweat will be a book in which brotherly love and the spirit of services is concentrated. This will provide another chance to remind others of their passion for the future workers for our country. I hope that our organization receives more support and encouragement from concerned people. (This was written by Mr. Walter K. Park, the Founder, in the spring of 1995 before he passed away)

6 KASF 40 Years Remarks Khee Park <Chair, the KASF National Board of Directors> It has been a great pleasure to see the Korean American Scholarship Foundation serving the Korean American community for the past 40 years. Without the commitment of the donors and supporters including volunteers, this community service based legacy would not exist. One of the biggest reasons for the success of the foundation is volunteerism. The KASF is operated and managed by all volunteers. These volunteers are comprised of a variety of professions and backgrounds. What unites them together at the KASF is desire to help others to achieve higher goals through education and serving others. Mr. Keith Kim, the third Chairman of National Board of Directors, has spent many hours to trace back some of the work that went on behind the scenes. He has painstakingly compiled some of the history of the KASF since the compilation of the first 25 years of the KASF by Mr. Young Whan Park of the Eastern Regional Chapter in Needless to say, countless previously undocumented efforts that would have been very difficult to trace have now been acknowledged by Mr. Kim. We, the entire family of the Korean American Scholarship Foundation, would like to extend heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Keith Kim.

7 Remarks Keith Soon Kim <The First President of KASF Western Region and Third National Board Chair> I am delighted to see this publication which is a compilation of the 40 years of history of Korean American Scholarship Foundation. In the process of collecting and organizing the past forty years of records and documents, I felt as if I was looking at a forty story high building that was built by so many dedicated board members, donors and volunteers. Many thoughts of appreciation and fulfillment crossed my mind. Despite their own hectic lives, many board members sacrificed themselves by putting their best efforts for the future generation and the history of KASF is the living proof of their hard works. KASF was first organized in Washington, DC(Eastern Region) in 1969 followed by Los Angeles (Western Region) in 1985, Atlanta (Southern Region) in 1991, Chicago (Midwestern Region) in 1993, New York (Northeastern Region) in 2003 and Detroit (Mideastern Region) in Over the years, KASF became the biggest Korean American national scholarship organization. We started with $300 initial scholarship fund, but forty years later, KASF Scholarship Fund has grown to more than $3,000,000 in investment (endowment) and awarded more than $5,000,000 of scholarships to 4,300 students. The amount of scholarships awarded and the number of students benefited are the true testimonials of what KASF has done for the community and this monumental achievement will be forever remembered in our Korean American history. The fundraising for the scholarship was challenging, however the board members maximized their efforts and hundreds and thousands of Korean American donors have joined this noble cause. With their support, KASF was able to award many different scholarships including the designated scholarships. The students who first received the scholarships forty years ago are now in their fifties and are making many positive contributions to the society. Of course, there is no doubt that many more KASF scholarship recipients will join them by becoming productive and valuable members of the society. As the founders wished, it is about time for those who received the scholarships give back for their next generation. We expect them to come back as donors and also as the members of the board. Together we can accomplish the goals and dreams we had in the beginning and as we celebrate its 50th and 100th years of contribution, KASF will become a stronger foundation with deep roots in leadership development. I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the regional presidents and the history committee members for their assistance in compiling records and sharing invaluable documents. The publication of this book would not have been possible without their support. It is my hope that KASF will continue to flourish in offering scholarships to more deserving Korean American students, but further become an organization that will serve the entire American society. Thank you

10 KASF 40 Years 1. President Walter K. Park (1969~1973) Officers President: Walter K. Park Vice President: Kwan Bu Park Secretary: Eung Hwan Lee President Walter K. Park In the 1960s, Korean students in America were very small in numbers and the Korean community was also very feeble. Most of the students were paying their own way, but there were no particular opportunities to earn tuition money and no Korean organizations to assist them. Every summer many students who couldn t make enough money gave up enrolling or even stopped studying altogether. After seeing their pitiful circumstances, Korean Americans who were living in the Washington area got together to be of any assistance for them. That was the beginning of this organization. the Teamsters Union Hall. About 100 invitations were sent to the Foreign Embassy in Washington and about 200 to Korean students and residents. Violinists Nam Yoon Kim and Young Wook Kim, pianist Gun Woo Paik, cellist Myung Hwa Chung, and vocalist Sun Gil Kim, all very talented musicians studying at Juilliard Music School in New York at the time, gave impressive performances. Eung Hwan Lee, President of the Students Association, Hyun Doo Park and Jung Sup Choi, officers of the organization, delivered $325 raised The Jewish, Chinese, and Japanese communities, who had a long history of immigration in America, had established considerably large ethnic scholarship foundations to support and influence the education of their respective second generations. This largely motivated a group of Koreans to establish their own scholarship foundation in America. On December 5, 1968, the Korean Students Association of Washington, D. C. held a fundraising concert concurrently with a year-end party at Directors of early days. Ho Eul Hwang, Walter Park, Chang Hee Oh, and Kwan Boo Park (from left) 10

11 First 20 Years from the evening to Mr. Walter K. Park, advisor to the Student Association, and requested him to establish a scholarship foundation for struggling Korean students in America. That very humble amount of money was the seed which was planted and grew to become the Korean American Scholarship Foundation At the Students Association s request, Mr. Walter K. Park invited Korean residents who supported establishing a scholarship organization on February 18, 1969, to the Korean restaurant Seorabul in Winsor Park Hotel (which is now the Chinese Embassy). At the dinner, Mr. Park initiated the board of directors. Walter Park, Kwan Bu Park, Soo Young Oh, Eun Soon Kye, Sung Ho Lee, Eung Chang Kim, Eung Hwan Lee, and Jae Chang Choi participated in that meeting and they elected Walter Park as President and Chairperson, Kwan Bu Park as Vice President, and Eung Hwan Lee as Executive Director. The initiation meeting in 1969 decided to expand the scholarship operation nationally and planned to establish braches in 19 cities around the U. S. The cities included Ann Arbor, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Dallas, Detroit, Houston, Ithaca, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, Philadelphia, Rochester, Richmond, Salt Lake City, San Francisco, Seattle, and St. Louis The second board meeting was held in October 1969 and a decision was made that the directors show their good faith to fundraising, as President Park had suggested. However, only half of the pledged $2,700 was actually collected. Around Christmas 1970, a fundraising event including a lottery was held, but the result in income was not what was hoped for. Nam (Ann Arbor), Choon Jae Lee(Detroit), Won Mo Dong(Dallas), Hyung Il Kim(Los Angeles), Jae Hong Yang(St. Louis), Dong Uk Moon(Cleveland), Young Jin Kim(Austin), Ho Young Lee(Rochster), Gyu Hwan Lee(Philadelphia), and Eung Chang Kim(Washington) attended the meeting. This meeting, in which the charter of scholarship foundation was adopted and basic operation principles were decided upon, gave hope at the start. However, a lack of fundraising activities and immediate financial difficulties made the national organization an organization in name only and the foundation was left to be an organization operated in and around Washington. As the funds raised through various activities after the establishment of organization in 1969 totaled less than $3,000, the executive board realized the limitations of Korean communities in Washington at the time. After consultations with various Korean residents, they decided to ask the Korean Government and businesses for help and Executive Director Eung Hwan Lee visited Korea in March Mr. Lee made opportunities to inform Korean people of the existence of the Scholarship Foundation through interviews with major newspapers in Korea including Kyunghyang Shinmun, Donga Ilbo, Chosun Ilbo, Hankook Ilbo, and succeeded to get positive reactions from people in Korea. With the help of politicians like the late Mr. Il Kwon Jung and Jong Pil Kim, he raised total $35,725, including $6,000 from Sung Hwan Kim, $3,000 each 1971 The first National Board of Directors meeting was held June 1971 in Washington. About 20 directors who represented every region including Kee Young Shim(Chicago), Yun Bae Park (Miami), Sang Yong Mr. Eung Hwan Lee and the office of the foundation 11

12 KASF 40 Years 12 from Byung Chul Lee, Sung Gon Kim, and Jung Hoon Cho, respectively, and $1,000 each from Suck Rae Cho, Yeon Namgung, Ju Young Chung, Chang Won Kim, In Deuk Kim, Yong Hak Park, Hak Won Lee, and Sung Mo Choi. The late Il Kwon Chung helped him to exchange and send the money to America. That marked the very first epoch of fundraising in the foundation s history. In the early days of the foundation, neither the internet nor national newspapers were available to publicize quickly and efficiently. To inform Korean residents about the scholarship foundation and embark on fundraising activities nationally, the executive board planned a nationwide tour for Korean entertainers in major cities of the United States. Singer Mi Ja Lee(Left) and comedian Kyu Seok Kwak (right) at the first fundraising concert The first nationwide tour occurred in August 1971 and consisted of performances in 10 cities, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Dallas, Washington, Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, New York, and Cleveland. The tour, in which Korean popular singers Mi Ja Lee and Hee Jun Choi and comedian Gyu Seok Kwak were invited, was very successful. However, the price of a ticket was only $2 or $3 to defray the cost. They distributed pledge cards to concerned Korean residents to let them promise donations. In spite of many difficulties, total oral pledges amounted to $6,000 nationally. Unfortunately, only 4 or 5 of the 10 cities sent proceeds from the tour and the total amount collected was mere $700. This resulted in a loss of several thousand dollars after paying for expenses such as flight charge for the entertainers. The Board of Directors evaluated this matter and agreed upon the necessity of the operation: considering the purpose of operation and its importance to long term effects of publicity In 1972, 6 entertainers, Hee Jun Choi, Sang Hee Kim, Hee Gap Kim, Hyung Jun Park, Hong Tak Choi, and Han Soo Park, participated in a 17-city tour that ranged from June to July 15. It was very successful in big cities such as New York and Washington. However, it didn t make sense economically, because purpose of the tour was to visit more places and let more people know about the foundation. Due to the excessive cost of touring close to 20 cities, the foundation suffered a loss of $4,300. While the Korean entertainers concert tour was not profitable for the foundation, it effectively informed Korean residents and students of the foundation s scholarship operations. At the third meeting held in the meeting room of the Korean Embassy on April 5, 1971, the board of directors discussed how to use the funds raised in Korea and decided to spend $16,000 for loan scholarships, allocated up to $500 per person annually. $27,200 of loan scholarship money was loaned to a total of 70 doctorate or graduate students for 3 years, but only 10% was paid back within a year, 20% within 2 years, 50% within 3 years, and 20% was never repaid. However, considering tuition expenses at the time, the limit of $500 was not very helpful to students. The loan scholarship program had to be stopped eventually. Fearing that the goal of the scholarship foundation could not be met with the limited funding sources, new ideas to raise funds were adopted. One of the ideas was to supply monthly magazines published in Korea by mail order. This project didn t last 6 months due to a Korean resident in Chicago opening a large Korean

13 First 20 Years book store in the fall of 1972 that accepted nationwide applications for subscriptions of Korean magazines. An English newsletter was first published in the fall of 1971, as a medium to publicize the work of scholarship foundation and to expand to other regions. The first newsletter reported the organization, activities, and fundraising plan of the foundation in Washington. The second newsletter was published in 1972 before a nationwide fundraising concert tour to introduce Korean entertainers and their upcoming performances. It cost about $5,000 from the fund to print and deliver the two newsletters, but it was regarded as a major publicity project towards informing Korean residents and students scattered across the enormous American continent. The Korean Students Association in Washington organized a special investigation committee for the scholarship fund with President Hyun Min Lee heading the committee. They sent an official letter to Walter Park, the president of scholarship foundation, and a consul in charge of education at the Korean Embassy in Washington and complained about a few things such as the loan scholarship, accounting, tax, and fundraising process of the scholarship foundation. President Walter Park and Director Choon Taik Suh met leaders of students associations to explain the foundation s financial status, results of a recent audit, and other items. They accepted the student associations inquiries positively, and encouraged their active participation in the future. The complaints of the students associations faded away after President Park sent the students a letter of explanation. tours resulted in a net loss of $5,000. Magazine subscriptions were ended almost immediately after it started and it cost about $6,000 to publish newsletters. It cost money to invite regional representatives to meetings for nationwide organization and to maintain office. Therefore, the funds of the foundation were almost exhausted. Although there were many hardships in fundraising Choon Taik Suh, Young Whan Park, John D. Yoon, Walter Park, and Suk Hee Lee (from left) and maintaining the organization, those who dedicated themselves to support establishing the scholarship foundation in Washington area with President Walter Park included: Hyuk Cho Kwon Eung Chang Kim See Hwang Kim Choon Taik Suh John D. Yoon Sung Ho Lee Jo Won Lee Jin Woo Chang Jae Hyung Choi Ho Eul Hwang Eun Soon Kye Tae Hoon Kim Kwan Boo Park Soo Young Oh Suk Hee Lee Eung Hwan Lee Hyung Suk Lee Soon Bok Choi Jae Chang Choi Financial Hardship With the support and approval of many Korean residents and systems in order, the foundation started with high hopes and little trouble. However, total income of the foundation from 1969 to 1974 was only $43,725, which included $35,725 from the Korean business community and $8,000 raised in the New York region. Pledged money was rarely collected and the two nationwide fundraising 13

Two concert tours by Korean entertainers and a failed monthly magazine subscription attempt and a loan scholarship resulted in financial loss. The foundation nearly suffered bankruptcy. Moreover, students associations were voicing criticism and challenges and the criticism from other Korean residents began to be heard. Some believed helping the next generation as their duty, but others thought scholarships designated for Korean American students were not needed because there were so many merit scholarships in America. Some people questioned the form of expenditure of raised funds for scholarships. With the oil shock at the time, followed by a recession, many people felt uneasy. Under these depressed conditions, Dr. John D. Yoon was elected as the second president of the foundation in the board meeting held on November 15, President Yoon, who helped the first president and participated in foundation s activities, had a firm belief that the scholarships for the future generation of Korean immigrants should be prepared, since immigration would continue due to the Immigration Law amendment in In an attempt to revitalize the inactive foundation, John Yoon appointed Jin Woo Chang as Vice President, Choon Taik Suh as Executive Director and submitted a new organization chart and fundraising ideas to the board of directors as follows: First, change regulations to set up committees. The foundation will be managed by an Executive Board consisting of President, Vice President, Executive Director, Financier, Fundraising Committee, Scholarship Committee, and Public Relations Committee whose Chairmen are responsible for respective regions. Second, map out a new fundraising system. An annual fundraising party, encouraging concerned people in the area to give donations, conduct lottery sales, collection of loan scholarships from recipients, etc. Third, accumulate funds by giving only part of the raised money for scholarships and saving the rest as well as establishing grant scholarships instead of loan scholarship as the funds increase. These three suggestions were all approved by the board. 14

15 First 20 Years officers were elected in this meeting. President John Yoon and Executive Manager Choon Taik Suh were reelected and Sook Ja Bang was newly elected as Vice President, Jin Woo Chang as Financier, and Sung Ho Lee as Fundraising Chairperson. Mr. & Mrs. Ambassador Byung Chun Ham, Senator Methias, Mr. & Mrs. John Yoon, and Mr. & Mrs. Walter Park in 1974 fundraising dinner 1974 The first fundraising dinner party was held at the Hilton Hotel in downtown Washington, D.C. on March 15, With more than 200 guests present, President John D. Yoon asked for their help, emphasizing the need for ethnic scholarships in Korean American communities. Mr. Byung Chun Ham, an ambassador to the United States, was there and encouraged the purpose and work of the foundation and U.S. Senator Charles Methias who also was present wished success of Korean students who were going to finish education with the help of the scholarship. Citing the U. S. Constitution, Senator Methias stated that freedom, equality, and the pursuit of happiness are rights given to all American citizens and everybody is equal under the law, regardless of race. The Senator, who emphasized moral support for these kinds of events in minority communities, later discussed the matter in the U.S. Senate. The profits from this fundraising event totaled $2,500 and the image of the foundation was greatly improved. The following year, the second annual fundraising dinner party was again held at the Hilton Hotel on March 22 under the same premise. Approximately 190 Korean residents attended and Ambassador Ham gave an encouraging speech. The fundraising dinner raised $2, The general meeting of the board was held at Sung Ho Lee s house in Bethesda on June 28, The prior year s balance sheet was reported and new It was resolved that additional scholarship funds would be raised to be given to Korean students and lottery tickets would be sold as a fundraiser. All matters related to lottery sales were placed in the hands of newly elected Fundraising Chairperson Sung Ho Lee. The board met several times to plan and promote the sale of lottery tickets. The directors, who were required to sell 300 lottery tickets each, enthusiastically sold them at every shopping center in the Washington area and ended up selling more than 10,000 tickets. To celebrate Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving), the foundation held a dance/dinner party and the lottery drawing event at the same time on September 21, 1975 at Knight Columbus Hall in Arlington, Virginia. The person who won a Pinto that night was a Chinese man and many prizes such as a 25- inch color TV, 19-inch color TV, and recorder were handed out. Thanks to the holiday spirit, the party was a great success. Every time a prize was drawn, participants greeted the winner with cheers. The scene made the hearts of the directors, who had worked so hard to sell more than 10,000 $1 lottery tickets for two months, fill with joy. The net profit from the lottery sale was $14, The board decided to increase the number of directors for more active fundraising. The directors who worked from the start with President Yoon were Soo Young Cha, Jin Woo Chang, Tae Hoon Kim, Eung Chang Kim, Soon Bok Choi, Hyuk Cho Kwon, Hyung Suk Lee, Jong Sam Lee, Sung Ho Lee, Ki Hwang Kim, Sook Ja Bang, Won Taek Moon, Soo Young Oh, Walter Park, Young Hwan Park, Jin Woo Park, Joon Ku Lee, Choon Taik Suh, Bo Hyun Lim and John Yoon.

The theme of the party was changed from a dance to a formal dinner to give more scholarships by reducing costs. The entrance fee of the party was $8 and one color TV was given as a raffle prize. Five students received scholarships at the party, of which three were in doctorate, and two in masters programs A farewell party for the retiring Walter Park, who had served for 9 years as the founder, inaugural president, and Chairperson of the foundation, was held on June 4, 1977 at the Capital Hilton Hotel in downtown Washington. Chairman Park thanked many directors who had supported him and Eun Myung Jeon, Soprano and Gang Hee Yoo, Tenor sang festive songs. Chairman Park was given a plaque for his distinguished services. Newsletters which energized the public relations activities of the foundation were published twice, thanks to director Young Hwan Park s hard work. They followed the first newsletters published by Executive Manager Eung Hwan Lee in the early days of foundation (1969~70), and were distributed widely amongst the Korean communities. singular goal of raising Korean talents, President Yoon and Chairman Park requested understanding about their position that they could not allow the Senior Supervisor in the Embassy to have the final choice in scholarship awardees. The Blue House didn t accept their request and established a scholarship in the Embassy administered by the Korean Government.

However, his visit didn t bear any fruit due to the following reasons: Ambassador Kim, who evaluated the foundation s purpose and achievements, highly recommended that the Blue House (the Korean equivalent of the American White House) sponsor $1 million. The Blue House agreed to sponsor $1 million under the condition that final selection of scholarship awardees had to be made by the Senior Supervisor in the Embassy. At that time many students opposed the military regime s long-standing grasp of political power, so the intention to exclude those students from receiving scholarships was included.

They were inherited $16, from the prior President. Chairperson Yoon appointed Sook Ja Bang as Vice Chairperson, Young Whan Park as Executive Director, Sook Ja Bang as Chairperson for Scholarship Committee, Sang Hyun Ahn as Chairperson for Fundraising Committee, and Hyung Suk Lee as Chairperson for the Recruiting Committee to support the Board and President. Sook Ja Bang, the Chairperson for the Scholarship Committee, ran advertisements for applications in newspapers in October. After thoroughly screening the applicants, four students were chosen as grant scholars. $500 per person, totaling $2,000 worth of scholarships, was awarded at the year end party for Korean students on December 23.

It was also officially registered as a non-profit organization in Washington D.C. under the new name. On December 21, 1977, the Board decided to sponsor an art exhibition on the first week of April the following year. They planned to encourage the participation of artists through the artists association and encourage donations from a portion of profits to the scholarship fund. Although many artists in Washington took part in the exhibition, the income was insignificant because of weak sales. 17

18 18 KASF 40 Years However, the fundraising effort of the foundation was recognized by Korean community. A lottery sale, which was started by the former President s group and produced a profit, was promoted by the new President. The grand prize for that year was a car and the drawing was held at the Seoul National University Alumni s year-end party. Mr. Chang Young Han won the grand prize On May 22, 1978, Young Hwan Chang, President of the Korean Students Association in Washington, officially criticized the foundation through a statement titled On closing the fundraising concert for scholarships. The statement said that even though the event was a fundraiser to help students, the management of the scholarship foundation was questionable. The statement also pointed out several area of improvement. First, it asked for the reason why concrete future plans of the Foundation s scholarship business was not announced and asked for an explanation regarding the slump of fundraising events under the name of students for the past 10 years. Second, it demanded for an explanation for the reason why scholarships were awarded to students of other regions than the Washington area where the funds were raised. Third, it requested a detailed financial report for total funds raised by the foundation, operation expenses, and uncollected loan scholarships for the past 10 years. Finally, it questioned why the foundation was operated as a regular non-profit organization under federal tax law. In July 1978, President Yo-Taik Song, Vice President Jong Soo Lee, and Executive Director Il Ho Park gave an interview with a local Korean newspaper to address the complaints and accusations of the Korean Students Association. They said that the scholarships were grants since it was impossible to collect scholarship loans. Second, although the need to raise more funds was getting bigger with increasing applications for scholarships each year, it was getting harder to raise funds. As a result, the foundation was working to get more cooperation from Korean residents. Next, it was pointed out that the foundation is operated in the Washington area for now, but working with a plan to be expanded nationwide in the future. They encouraged students not to complain and argue about the purpose of the foundation to help students in adverse circumstances but to cooperate and participate in the organization themselves. At the board meeting on September 5, 1978, the directors collected $6,100 on the spot to set a good example for fundraising activities. Directors who were present that day were Walter K. Park, Soo Young Oh, Sook Ja Bang, Young Whan Park, Jong Soo Lee, Hong Ja Kim, Yo-Taik Song, Il Ho Park, Seung Gil Yang, Jae Hyung Woo, Jin Woo Park, John D. Yoon, and Sang Hyun Ahn.

Yoon Vice Chairperson: Sook Ja Bang Due to the illness of President Yoon, the foundation could not be operated normally and the selection of a new president was not easy, despite the efforts of the nomination committee. Eventually, Ung Soo Kim, who was a professor at Catholic University in Washington, D.C. accepted the presidency and he started to organize officers immediately. Vice President Sook Ja Bang, Executive Director Young Shik Choi, Treasurer Seung Gil Yang, and Secretary Young Il Yum were appointed by the beginning of June, The Board of Directors were organized with Chairperson John Yoon, Fundraising Chairperson Yo-Taik Song, Scholarship Chairperson Jae Min Paek, Organization Chairperson Sang Nam Lee, Finance Chairperson Choon Taik Suh, and By-Law Chairperson Hyung Suk Lee. The first regular board meeting was held at a restaurant on July 23, Pointing out that the scholarship foundation was falling well behind the pace in which Korean communities in the United States were developing; President Ung Soo Kim emphasized creating a development plan for the foundation through reorganization. He said that the desired growth of the foundation could be achieved not by a small numbers of benefactors, but by the wide participation of Korean residents. Basic operational policies and goals were announced that day as follows: the first was to improve the administrative system and readjust laws and regulations for fair management of finance. Second was the expansion of the organization to other regions to become a nationwide scholarship foundation. Third, it was determined that fundraising should be based on the sacrifice and leadership of the directors and each director should donate $1,000 within two years. Fourth, the target amount of total fundraising for 1985 was set at $200,000 and in order for the Board of Directors to be able to defray 15% of that amount, 50 more Directors

23 First 20 Years would need to be appointed. Fifth the lottery sale was to be continued and fundraising operations would be activated through the annual fundraising dinner. Besides fundraising, encouraging social and religious organizations, benefactors, and wealthy persons to establish scholarship fund under their names. Sixth, an administrative system would be established to manage and multiply scholarship funds efficiently and to conduct an external audit within a year. Seventh, public relations activities should be reinforced to publicize the scholarship foundation s activities throughout the U.S. In addition, the Foundation wished to treat benefactors and Board of Directors who had contributed to the foundation with respect and gratitude. The final goal was to have the Foundation and its activities be recognized by community. Understanding that there were misunderstandings about the relationship between the Korean Embassy Scholarship funded by President Du Hwan Chun s donation and the Foundation s scholarship, the executive board met Mr. Young Ki Mo, Education counselor in the Embassy, to find ways for the two scholarships to coexist separately and help each other. After the discussion, Counselor Mo was invited to the board meeting held on September 24, The Embassy asked the foundation for a fair selection of scholarship awardees, use of raised funds for scholarships only, and for an audit conducted by a CPA. President Ung Soo Kim sent a formal letter to the Korean Ambassador on November 8 th to state the position of the foundation. Emphasizing the foundation s historical necessity, independence, and significance of the Embassy s support, he recommended appointing the Education Counselor in the Embassy as a director and the Ambassador as an Honorary President, if necessary. The Korean Ambassador hoped for the coexistence and supplementation of two scholarships in a reply on November 30 th and stated that he intended to support the foundation and agreed to the honorary position, if necessary. On October 15, 1983, a fundraising dinner party was held at Sheraton National Hotel in Arlington and about 180 Korean residents who paid a fee of $50 per person attended. After Ambassador Byung Hyun Ryu s congratulatory remarks, Eun Myung Chun and Young Ho Lee sang Korean songs. $4,130 was raised from the dinner and Il Sun Kang, Ik Tae Yum, Chung Il Park, and Hyun Shik Park pledged $3,000 for the scholarship fund The scholarship awards ceremony was held at the Auditorium of George Washington University on February 25, 1984 and 13 students selected from 46 nationwide applicants were each awarded $1,000 scholarships. The number of Directors which were 31 when the new President took office increased rapidly through two board meetings on December 31, 1983 and June 15, Also, many Korean residents began to participate as directors and actively raise funds. The new board set the goal of $200,000 and very vigorously raised funds, but it was not an easy task. Although 15 years had passed since establishment of the foundation, the endowment of the foundation at that time was a mere $23,000 and it was hard to escape from the situation of getting a dollar to give a dollar. President Ung Soo Kim succeeded to get donation of $100,000 from POSCO in Korea. With this donation, which marked an epoch in fundraising efforts and the building of momentum of the financial basis of the foundation, the President s group established Chair Scholarships and expanded fundraising activities to wider Korean communities. In addition, the Walter K. Park Chair Scholarship was established by the Board to recognize Mr. Park for his services as the founder and first president of the foundation. Newly established chair scholarships were as follows: Walter K.

The amendment prepared by numerous exchanges of opinions was approved unanimously in the Central Executive Committee meeting held at Sheraton National Hotel in Arlington on June 10, 1989.

33 The main contents of the five amendments were as follows: First, the nationwide foundation will be made up with a national board of directors representing each region. The national board is made up with directors who are selected by each region and the number of directors one region can send ranges from a minimum of two to a maximum of five. Second, the number of national directors as of 1989 was eight, five in the Eastern Region and three in the Western Region. Third, the scholarship foundation based in the Washington area will be reorganized as the Eastern Region. Fourth, the National Board of Directors will manage the scholarship fund, coordinate the allotment of scholarship funds to each region, strive towards establishing new local scholarship foundations, as well as study and recommend scholarship plans and charter amendments. Fifth, the National Chairperson will be elected from the national board of directors. The President elected in each Region automatically becomes a member of the national board.
