It was a wonderful evening where patrons learned of Sungjoo Kim’s background and passion for creating support initiatives for women and girls in modern society and indeed her great sense of mission in life has ignited and the inception of PAWA. Her hard work ethic in both professional life and charity work is highly inspiring. Several of charter founder members of PAWA were invited to share their experiences in working and building the steady growth of PAWA over the last fifteen years as volunteers. \nIt was also a fantastic opportunity to express and exchange both present and new ideas on future directions for PAWA\, with a deep sense of collective commitment for all to continue making an impact. And we hope the new Patron (scheme/programme) will be a beginning of influential tradition and part of growth in future support. With a great sense of optimism we hope to make this special Founder’s Dinner as an annual event. We are grateful and honoured to have constant support and inspiration\, so enthusiastically given by our founder Sungjoo Kim. \n \n\n Founder's Dinner 2025\n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n Image 1 of 4 URL:https://pawa-london.org/event/pawa-founders-dinner/ LOCATION:Euronext\, 11th Floor\, Cargo Building\, 25th North Colonnade\, London E14 5HS\, Euronext\, 11th Floor Cargo Building\, 25th North Colonnade\, London\, E14 5HS\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Past Events END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20250205 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20250206 DTSTAMP:20260418T090627 CREATED:20250406T070658Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250410T133855Z UID:9321-1738713600-1738799999@pawa-london.org SUMMARY:PAWA Founder’s Lunar New Year Reception at MCM DESCRIPTION:PAWA’s Founder and Chairperson of MCM Group\, Mrs. SungJoo Kim\, invited PAWA and friends to celebrate Lunar New Year at MCM boutique in London. \n \n\n PAWA Founder’s Lunar New Year Reception at MCM\n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n Image 1 of 12 URL:https://pawa-london.org/event/pawa-founders-lunar-new-year-reception-at-mcm/ LOCATION:Euronext\, 11th Floor\, Cargo Building\, 25th North Colonnade\, London E14 5HS\, Euronext\, 11th Floor Cargo Building\, 25th North Colonnade\, London\, E14 5HS\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Past Events END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20241011T183000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20241011T213000 DTSTAMP:20260418T090627 CREATED:20240906T130714Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241015T040724Z UID:4961-1728671400-1728682200@pawa-london.org SUMMARY:PAWA@15 Open House DESCRIPTION:Join us at Asia House to celebrate 15 years of supporting teenage girls education on UN’s International Day of the Girl.
