Korean Kids and Orphanage Outreach Mission or "KKOOM" (pronounced "koom" with a strong 'k' sound) was founded in September 2007. KKOOM's mission is to improve the lives of Korean orphans through outreach and education. KKOOM is organized to perform the following five tasks: 1. to improve and enrich the lives of children living in South Korea's social welfare system by providing daily living necessities, educational materials, and experiences, and special events and programming; 2. to support these youth after they leave the institutions and start their own lives by providing post-high-school-graduation education, support services, and resources; 3. to aid the institutions and staff that devote their resources to the upbringing of these youth by supporting facilities projects and improvements and day-to-day activities; 4. to spread awareness about and build compassion for children living in South Korean group homes through local activities and the maintenance of a website containing general information about the corporation and its activities; 5. to engage in legal charitable fundraising activities in order to raise money for the purposes specified above. KKOOM is a registered 501(c)3 IRS tax-exempt non-profit corporation organized in the state of Michigan with its headquarters located in Georgia.
