A message from the chairman
Dear all,
I am Hyunwoo Woo, the chairman of the Woo's Academic Mentoring Foundation (WAMF).
The WAMF is a personal voluntary organization started in 2020 to provide undergraduate and graduate students with vitality in their studies regardless of economic conditions, depending on their will and abilities.
I have tried my best to help many students who are financially challenged or worn out studying as much as they want, and I will continue to do so in the future. So far, it is not such a large amount yet, but I want to motivate many students to find a field that suits their aptitude and to study it enthusiastically, and ultimately to spread a virtuous impact.
There are still many students who have financial and career difficulties studying in our world. The WAMF and I will commit to supporting them with more plentiful scholarships and mentoring to alleviate their burden on their university.
Sincerely,
Chairman
Woo's Academic Research Foundation
