To the KACF Family,
It has been my honor and privilege to be part of the Korean American Community Foundation. I leave the Board at the end of this year knowing that KACF is stronger and more vibrant than ever. I’ve had the privilege to be at the forefront of numerous ground-breaking initiatives. And I’ve enjoyed celebrating those milestones with you, as we are tonight.
In the end, our collective decisions along the way have created a positive ripple effect in the lives of Korean Americans in our community and beyond.
From creating our very first Gala together in New York in 2006 to seeing KACF San Francisco’s inaugural gala coming to fruition this year, I feel truly humbled, proud and honored.
One of the greatest things to come out of participating is my personal growth during this journey. You have all helped shaped my life throughout these years.
Thank you for letting me share in this journey with you. I am truly grateful. James Wohn Chairman of the Board of Directors Korean American Community Foundation (KACF) SILVER SPONSOR
