"A women-led nonprofit founded in the early 1970s that evolved from a social club into a major social-services organization offering ESL classes, driving lessons, resume help, domestic-violence support and later affordable housing and senior-care initiatives; registered as a nonprofit in 1979, it has grown into one of the state's largest nonprofits, employing around 1,400 people across multiple counties and managing tens of millions in annual operations, and remains a civic anchor built to help newly arrived and longtime Korean American residents." - Samantha Bakall
