Climate change caused by global warming threatens the welfare of human beings. Abnormal weather phenomena―severe flood, typhoon, heavy snow and drought―occur in many countries, and even claim lives and homes of thousands of people. As it is not a problem that one person or one country can solve, people in the world should cope with it "together".
In this present situation, a global welfare organization, Intl. WeLoveU Foundation [Chairwoman Zahng gil jah ; 회장 장길자] located in Korea, attracts public attention, carrying out various activities beyond national boundaries to save the sick Earth and help people in crisis all around the world.

Office workers, university students, housewives, students and even little children who went out together with their parents joined this meaningful walkathon to help global neighbors.

Chairwoman Zahng gil jah expressed her wish, saying,
“Protecting the Earth that is exposed to environmental disasters depends on university students like you. I wish the Green Campus Movement to expand throughout the whole world.”

Intl. WeLoveU Foundation said,
“In the clean environments, clean life can be formed and the true human welfare can be completed. Many people of each country gathered their mind to take the initiative and set an example of making known the seriousness of climate change and environmental pollution.”
Additionally, the Foundation said that they are going to help climate refugees with all people around the world, transcending national boundaries, and they will spread the consciousness reformation campaign as well.
The
Intl. WeLoveU Foundation develops various welfare activities such as child welfare, youth welfare, senior citizen welfare, social welfare, emergency relief and so on for the people of the world who are suffering from wars, famine, earthquakes, etc., with the purpose of the fulfillment of human welfare with
Mother’s Love . The
Intl. WeLoveU Foundation is favorably received since it helps neighbors in need in and out of Korea through various events such as New Life Concert, Blood Drive,
Clean WORLD movement and so on, and leads citizens to have an awareness of volunteer service and to participate in it.

The Foundation saves many lives by installing water pumps in the countries suffering from Water Shortage like Ghana, Kenya, Cambodia, Laos, etc. of which the people suffer from serious diseases due to lack of drinking water and are in danger of their lives. It is difficult to enumerate all the service activities of the Foundation: establishing temporary classrooms at a girls’ school in Peru, which were destroyed by the earthquake, donating school supplies to elementary schools in Cambodia, supplying daily necessities to flood victims in Nepal and Pakistan, helping earthquake victims in Japan, helping children with rare diseases, disabled kids and underprivileged families in various countries, etc.
The Intl. WeLoveU Foundation practices the love for humanity, even taking care of those who are out of the reach of their governments with Mother’s Love and they are expected to lead all people of the world to participate in the love. ----------- Shin Hyun-doo
