Scholarship
This scholarship began from the warm heart of a sponsor who, before passing away, left a legacy for children in need.
That spirit of giving has become the CCUM Scholarship Foundation, supporting students in developing countries to continue their university education without interruption due to financial difficulties.
All My Kids has supported children overseas with basic education through high school.
However, even after graduating high school, many students face yet another wall of reality.
"I want to go to university."
This small wish of students often stops before the reality of tuition fees.
Despite having sufficient dreams and capabilities, situations where students must give up university due to financial reasons still exist.
The CCUM Scholarship was started to fill this gap in education.
The CCUM Scholarship supports students with scholarships so they don't give up university due to financial difficulties, enabling them to continue learning and realize their potential.
We serve as a stepping stone for students to venture into a wider world and forge their own futures.
Just as one person's warm sharing leads to a student's future,
All My Kids will continue to stand with more students so they never give up on their dreams.
CCUM scholarship recipients are selected through recommendations from local educational institutions and partner organizations.
The following factors are comprehensively considered in the selection process:
Recommended students are selected through review of submitted documents and recommendations,
and we continuously monitor and support selected scholars to stably continue their university courses.
The CCUM Scholarship provides the following support to help students continue their studies at university:
This scholarship program aims beyond simply supporting tuition —
it creates an environment where students can focus on their studies.
Graduates who completed their university courses through CCUM scholarships
are discovering their potential and moving toward new futures.
"The scholarship was not just financial support, but the strength of believing in my potential."— Enkhzhin, Mongolian Graduate Scholar
"I will become a responsible medical professional to repay the trust you've given me."— Bulur, Mongolian Graduate Scholar
"The trust you sent was the strength that protected my studies and the hope that kept me from giving up my dreams."— Luong The Hien, Vietnamese Graduate Scholar
"Graduation is not the end, but a new starting line to begin sharing."— Pham Chu Huy, Vietnamese Graduate Scholar
The CCUM Scholarship is not simply about supporting tuition.
It is about staying beside students so they can continue learning to the end, and walking together on a path of hope so that dreams don't stop despite various real-world difficulties.
All My Kids will continue to accompany selected scholars until they complete their university courses,
supporting them to grow into leaders who will shape their nations' futures through education.
In 2024, sponsor Oh Jong-Soon donated her life savings of 2 billion won to All My Kids, asking that it be used for education of children in impoverished countries.
Even during difficult stage 4 cancer treatment, her determination to keep her promise deeply moved many people.
Carrying on this spirit, All My Kids established the Oh Jong-Soon Scholarship Foundation.
The risen Jesus said to his disciples who had caught nothing all night:
"Cast the net to the right side of the boat."
When they did, 153 fish filled the net.
In church tradition, this number symbolizes the universality of salvation and fullness of grace.
With this meaning, the OJS Foundation selected 153 children as scholarship recipients.
The OJS Foundation gathers and supports children who are relatively difficult to select through the regular sponsorship system.
Currently, All My Kids connects sponsors and children in a 1:1 system.
However, some children are difficult to introduce for various reasons.
Children requiring additional care due to physical/cognitive disabilities or chronic conditions
Children with mismatched records due to delayed birth registration
Orphans or children with missing/absent guardians
Children whose identification is difficult due to conflict, displacement, or disaster
Due to various factors, some children wait a long time or cannot be connected through sponsorship.
The OJS Foundation was started to fill this gap.
It helps children beyond the reach of sponsorship so they don't give up learning due to poverty, supporting them to continue life's possibilities through education.
This foundation is hope that opens a child's tomorrow and a space of love that reaches the unseen.
All My Kids will carry on the noble spirit of sponsor Oh Jong-Soon,
walking alongside children who continue their dreams and hopes without giving up.
