It aims to reduce financial burdens on university students and promote regular eating habits. Through support from the government, local authorities, the university, and alumni, students can enjoy meals worth approximately 6,000 won for just 1,000 won at the Hanyang Plaza student cafeteria.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Last year, HYU received the Grand Prize from the MAFRA in recognition of the program&#8217;s quality and stable operation. This achievement was made possible through the efforts of cafeteria staff, planners, and support from the government and local authorities.

It is an important welfare initiative that helps students maintain a healthy university life and focus on their academics. She explained that the program was planned to create opportunities for students to express gratitude directly, as there had been limited communication between students and donors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">A 1986 cohort who received thank-you letters shared, \u201cWe were deeply moved by the sincere gratitude conveyed through carefully written letters from the students.\u201d They added, \u201cEven in an era where technology is changing the world, it is these small acts of sharing that connect genuine human emotions.\u201d They also expressed hope that this warm connection would strengthen students&#8217; affection for their university and encourage more alumni to participate in such giving.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-144\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress.goigi.biz\/HanyangUniversity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20260619140858_84468512-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.yourproject.online\/HanyangUniversity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20260619140858_84468512-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/wp.yourproject.online\/HanyangUniversity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20260619140858_84468512.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hanyang University (HYU)&#8217;s External Cooperation Team (HUECT) began hosting the \u201cThank-You Letter Writing Program\u201d for the \u201c1,000 Won Breakfast\u201d in March at the student cafeteria on the third floor of Hanyang Plaza.
