Inha University recently held a “1,000-Won Breakfast” volunteer meal service in collaboration with the Inha University Alumni Association to welcome the new semester.
The event was organized following the inauguration of Alumni Association President Kim Jong-woo in January, who donated 25 sacks of rice (10kg each), totaling 250kg, to commemorate his appointment.
University officials, including President Cho Myung-woo, and Alumni Association representatives, including President Kim, attended the event and personally served breakfast to students, delivering messages of encouragement for the new semester.
The “1,000-Won Breakfast” program provides university students with breakfast meals at a cost of 1,000 won. For each meal, the university receives a total of 3,000 won in support from the government and Incheon Metropolitan City, supplemented by university funding to offer the service. In response to strong student demand this year, the number of meals provided daily has been increased from 100 to 130 students. The Alumni Association has continued its annual tradition of donating rice to support junior students.
Kim Jong-woo, President of the Alumni Association, said, “Upon assuming the role of Alumni Association President, I wanted to practice meaningful sharing with my alma mater and junior students,” adding, “The Alumni Association will continue to provide steady support to serve as a reliable support system for our junior students.”
President Cho Myung-woo remarked, “The warm interest and support from the Alumni Association are a great source of strength for our students,” adding, “The university will also expand various welfare programs so that students can focus on their studies as they begin the new semester.”
