On November 7, the first Korea University Volunteers (KU-V) Festival was held at the People¡¯s Square. Hosted by the KU Social Service Organization (KUSSO) and sponsored by a professional golfer Chun In-gee (¡¯13, School of Global Sport Studies) KU-V Festival has made a successful debut.
KUSSO introduced the purpose of the event, ¡°KU-V Festival was held in the hope that various institutions, volunteering clubs, and KU students can get to know each other and seek for a chance of cooperation. From this year¡¯s KU-V Festival, we hope that KU students are provided with opportunities to take part in various volunteering activities, which would ultimately lead to continuous sharing.¡±
Seventeen external organizations, twelve volunteering clubs, and four sponsoring companies engaged in the festival and hosted booths of various kinds. The Seongbuk-gu Volunteer Center held an intriguing booth called ¡°Make Cotton Candies with Bicycles.¡± The participants cycled to generate electricity, and with the stored energy, the staffs made cotton candies for them. The KU-V Festival successfully fulfilled its goal of attracting more students to the field of volunteering.
