Honorary Membership - a way to thank those who support FOK

  • The nominee has contributed significantly to activity/activities related to the Friends of Korea mission to foster cultural awareness and friendship between Americans and Koreans in public service, business, religion, education, government, or the arts.
  • There should be a particular reason for recognition of the nominee by FOK Board members that embody the unique or highly characteristic bond between Americans and Koreans.
  • The honorary membership should have a special meaning to the individual being recognized.
  • Self-nominations are not accepted.​
