Sharing and Joyful Rounds, $20,000 Raised
The golf tournament was conceived as part of KAFHI USA's ministry to deliver the Gospel and bread to children in impoverished nations. A total of 77 donors and participants joined the event, engaging in meaningful giving, with all proceeds from entry fees ($200), hole sponsorships, and other donations designated for the construction of the children's center in Kenya.
Participants enjoyed their golf rounds along with a generous lunch and dinner, as well as various prizes and giveaways. Many also showed their generosity through graded sponsorships, including Diamond ($1,000+), Platinum ($500), and Gold ($200).
The tournament successfully raised $20,000 in invaluable contributions. This funding will be allocated immediately to a construction project for the children's center and church, which will provide education and care for children in the Isaolo region of Kenya.

Building Hope for the Children of Isaolo
Lee Jun Suk, Chairman of the KAFHI Midwestern Supporters’ Council, expressed his gratitude: "We are thankful to so many people who participated in this effort to help the children of Kenya grow their dreams and hold onto hope in a safe environment. We hope this golf tournament was more than just a sporting event, but a significant venue for sharing love."
Chung Seung-ho, Secretary-General of KAFHI, also emphasized: "The Isaolo region has many children suffering from poverty and a lack of educational opportunities. When the center and church are established, it will become a strong foundation where these children can be protected and thrive," and offered deep thanks for the active participation of the donors.
The $20,000 in precious funds raised through this golf tournament will be a great source of strength in preparing a space that will open up the future for Kenya's children, centered on the ministry of Missionary Kim Young-gwan.
