fundraising records
By KIM
JU-YEON, Korea JoongAng Daily - The American Chamber of Commerce (AMCHAM)
hosted its largest-ever CEO Servers' Night, a charity event
raising scholarship funds for low-income university students, on Thursday.
The gala also served as the 25th anniversary of AMCHAM's Partners for the
Future Foundation, which organizes the event each year.
A total of 41 CEOs and senior executives from AMCHAM member companies gathered
at the Conrad Seoul Hotel to wait on and serve meals to around 440 guests as
part of the annual charity event, the U.S. chamber said Friday.
“AMCHAM CEO
Servers’ Night is a meaningful tradition where business leaders come together
to give back and make a positive impact,” said James Kim, chairman and CEO of AMCHAM.
“I am deeply grateful to all the CEOs whose generosity and enthusiasm led to
this year’s record fund-raising,” he said while asking for continued support
from members to “bring even more hope and opportunities to students in need.”
“AMCHAM and
the Partners for the Future Foundation will remain dedicated to helping
talented students overcome financial challenges and pursue their dreams.
Together, we are building a brighter future for Korea,” he added.
The Partners
for the Future Foundation has provided scholarships to more than 4,900 students
over the years, and currently supports around 200 students annually, according
to AMCHAM.
