River of Faith is an inspiring case study revealing how the internationally recognized Ewha Womans University emerged as Christians, mostly women, in Korea and North America partnered over generations to uplift the status of women in society through education. This historical perspective of the International Foundation for Ewha Womans University (IFEWU) reveals the importance of long-term institution building and global-scale education movements.
River of Faith is a metaphor for a stream of compassion that flows to and through Ewha Womans University. Integral to the River of Faith story was the broad-based "Woman's Work for Woman" movement by Methodist women in North America begun in the late 19th century that fueled the creation of Ewha. Equally significant is Ewha's recent establishment and support of programs that advance its status "from the receiving university to a giving university" by opening its gates to underserved women students from developing countries.
The IFEWU was established in 1970 to assure the continuation of the North American commitment to assist Ewha in fulfilling Dr. Helen Kim's dreams of building a premier institution and promoting internationalism in which all people, including women and regardless of national boundaries, fully participate. Dr. Kim was Ewha's first Korean president.
This book centers on the creation and evolution of IFEWU over a 40-year period as it assisted Ewha Womans University through financial support for major buildings including the construction and equipping of the Centennial Library and Mokdong Hospital, the renovation of Welch-Ryang Auditorium, and the ongoing maintenance of Pfeiffer Hall. Additionally, IFEWU provided support for faculty enhancement and the Helen Kim International Lectureship. In recent decades, it has provided important assistance through scholarships for Ewha students through endowments set up by Ewha alumna, Ewha alumna chapters, and Ewha friends.
IFEWU continued and expanded on the benevolence of earlier organizations and individuals in North America to promote the education of girls and women in Korea. Over turbulent times, warm working and personal relationships formed as Ewha matured into an outstanding educational institution that seeks and builds international partnerships. IFEWU stands ready to be of service to Ewha in these efforts, as it learned from Dr. Helen Kim the valuable lesson of the good that happened as she crossed national boundaries to "make friends for Ewha."
