Good Neighbor Campaign: Cadets See
Korean Culture During YCA Visit

One of the lessons instructors with the Youth Challenge program hope their cadets learn is how diversity makes the world go around. That lesson and the one that anything is possible if a person tries was emphasized, Tuesday, May 22, when Atlanta businessman and native South Korean, Sunny Park and members of his Good Neighbor Campaign visited the YCA campus at Fort Stewart near Savannah. There were two goals for the day, Park said before boarding a plane at Marietta's Dobbins Air Reserve Base for the one-hour flight to Fort Stewart.

“The first is to give these youngsters a taste of a culture and a way of life that many of them may not get to experience," he said. "The Good Neighbor Campaign works in this way to bring Asians and Americans closer together through understanding and interaction.


“My other purpose is to encourage them and show them how to achieve success in their lives through hard work and planning,” Park explained. “I want to show them that the road to success is open to them, but that they must work for it and that the ‘easy’ way to the top is not the best way.”
