Int. WeLoveU Foundation and Gabones Republic agreed to take action against Global change


There is nothing more comforting than maternal tenderness. Or so argues the International WeLoveU Foundation. the South Koren welfare group whose slogan, "Mother's love to the Whole World," has become a rallying cry for helping the needy - irrespective of nationality, race, region, or means.

Just as most mothers traditionally strlve to keep a tidy house, WeLoveU believes that true welfare is possible only in a clean and safe environment. The preser-vation of clean water, flesh air, natural landscape and quality of life is essential. It says, to maintaining the world for future generations. Toward that end, the Clean World Movement was born.

Building on its impressive record of social welfare and emergency relife programs, WeLoveU has recently turned its focus to Africa, where it s trying to help villagers develope sustainable access to reliable drinking water. WeLoveU has donationed water pumps and water storage facilities to countries such as Ghana and Kenya.

In the Ghanaian village of Bremen Ko-koso, more than 3,000 residents were until reently sharing the 

only two waer pumps. Many had little choice but to make do with unclean water from a local stream, washing themselves and their clothes on the side and drinking from the other. Diseases such as Gulnea worm infection wee not uncommon.

The foundation fully funded an underground water development project for Bremen Kokoso in December 2008. After two months of drilling. two more pumps were added and continue to operate today. Laer, WeLoveU installed water umps in the Ghanaian towns of Amasamen Abehenease and Asubol.

The "Living Water Supply Campaign," which WeLoveU Promotes

 through the  New Life Walkathon, continues in severaal other African and Asian countries.
   These efforts have a spotlight on WeLoveU and bestowed some recongnition on South Korea as a proponent of low-carbon, green growth.
    Speaking at the recent Environmental Seminar o Green Campus in Seoul.,co- hosted by WeLoveU and the Daejayon(International Association of Unversity Students for Environmental Movement), the WeLoveU Chairwoman Zahng gil-jah, said: "We prepared the event together with Daejayon because we share the same hope to seek a solution to global environmntal problems and to realize the need for a low- carbon society."
  "African countries including Gabon are faced with the problem of sustainable growth," he said.' But one thing we have to be clear about is that the growth has to be based in the protection of the environment.
