CHARITY SECTION

We at Cobourg Tae Kwon Do feel that it is important to have generosity towards everyone we met and do not met. Martial Arts is about becoming the best person you can be and becoming very powerful. We who are more fortunate should strive to help those who are less fortunate than us. We have raised and donated a total of $9664.26 for charity as of this date.
