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."
And she said that social discrimination against the women is sometimes so strong that it leads them to put their babies up for adoption. Roughly, 200,000 Korean children have been sent overseas for adoption over the past 60 years. These woman need not only financial support, but social programs to help them raise their children by themselves.
Bai said, " I think moire than government support, they need support from the community and their families.

My introduction
Hello, My name is Kim Tae Hee.
My hobby is playing Gayagem. Gayagem is Korean traditional instrument. Last year I won a prize in the contest. I like to watch movie with my best friends. We go to watch a movie once a week. We like to see every kind of movie. After watching movie, we always eat delicious food.
And my favorite K-pop star is INFINITE. They are so cool. I love their music and dancing.
So I bought every album. I'll go their concert in February. It will be exciting!!!!
I want to have a cat. But my mother and father hate animals. I hope my parents change their mind.
And I like to read romance novel. Like twilight series.
This is my introduction. Thank you.
