Canadian Woman's Club serving homemade dishes to a group of Korean single mothers. They currently support two charities, Aeranwon and First Steps. They raise about 10 million won per year.
For the CWC members, meeting and helping the young women is a meaningful experience.

CWC member Bai said, "There's many gap between Canada and Korea in the treatment of single mothers."
