Thank you so much for the amazing support for the Outreach Program!

On Sunday morning, six of our TKS students were accompanied by Master Lee, Instructor Kwak, and their parents to help the homeless in LA. We had a great turnout of students and amazing support from our TKS family. Many families brought warm blankets, soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, towels, and warm clothes which are greatly needed.
