Erin Kim

Chief Executive Officer / Founder

Erin is currently a 16-year-old high school student. She is on track to study medicine and specialize in surgery, through which she hopes to provide high-risk procedures to underserved communities worldwide. She finds joy in helping others and strives to be a force for good in the world in any way that she can.

Her goal for Hope for the Youth is to inspire younger generations and ensure that every child she meets believes that they can make their dreams come true.

Erica Chung is a 16 year old high school student. From a young age her parents taught her the importance of hard work and dedication in order to create something that she can take pride in. After going on a mission trip to Puerto Rico in the summer of 2023, Erica had the opportunity to experience what it was like to bring smiles to the faces of children living in under-resourced communities even though they did not speak the same language. Erica is passionate about hospitality and hopes of going to school for it.
