‘Figure Queen’ Kim Yuna builds a school in Africa

'Figure Queen' Kim Yuna builds a school in South Sudan. Yuna has donated 70,000,000 Won to help a campaign for "Building 100 schools in South Sudan".  Father Vincenzo Donati and Comino Giacomo came to Korea for this fund raising.  Yuna met them and contributed to the campaign.  Yuna's donation will help build one school for these children.

Yuna said "I went to Togo for the Pyeongchang Winter Olympic bid one year ago and was very impressed by Africa. I would gladly like to help their activities if I can help children of South Sudan".  She also said "as an athlete, I know the importance of education for all children. I will help children in poverty as much as I can."

The Father said "as a figure queen, she has been a role model for many children and is sincere to true education. I am really thankful to Yuna for giving us a chance to realize children's dream in South Sudan".  He also said "one of the schools will be named the 'Kim Yuna School' and hope she can visit these kids during their studies in the school after the construction is completed."

Father Donati gave Yuna a drawing of the Virgin Mary on papyrus as a present and played the accordion to thank Yuna. Father Giacomo kept Yuna's autograph in a school plaque.
