WTF President Choue Donates $105,786 for Solidarity Programs

WTF President Chungwon Choue contributed 100 million won (US$105,786) to the Seoul-based World Taekwondo Federation for its development and solidarity programs in late February 2008.

For the WTF President, the donation was the second of its kind as he contributed US$125,000 to the WTF for development and solidarity programs in May 2005.

Since he became the president of the world’s taekwondo governing body in June 2004, Dr. Choue has stressed the importance of an increase in funds for various WTF solidarity programs.

For its solidarity programs, including assistance to taekwondo-developing countries, the WTF has secured funds from personal donations.
