A netizen who recently graduated from IU's alma mater, Dong Duk Women's High School, recently uploaded photos from a particular article on high school newspaper
The school newspaper says:
Dongdukās pride, 96th batch graduate, singer IU donated 10 million won this year without fail to the development fund of our school. Besides donating to the development fund, she prepared rice cake and drinks for the teachers too. Also, IU revealed her intention to support the university tuition fees for those from difficult family backgrounds and donated 5 million won each to 4 students who got into university but face difficulties paying the tuition fee, to help pay for their education. In her congratulatory video message for the 100th graduation ceremony, IU congratulated the school on its 100th graduation ceremony and hoped that her juniors would have a bright future ahead, showing her affection for her juniors and alma mater. Although she started her career as a singer, she showcased her talents to the fullest as an actress, MC and in various other aspects, bringing glory to her school as a great pride of Dongduk. We hope to see a 2nd, 3rd IU in future that would bring Dongduk Girlsā High with 100 years of tradition to greater heights in future.
The 'IU Scholarship' will be an annual scholarship funded by the singer each year beginning in 2016, and will consist of 5,000,000 KRā© (approximately $4300) awarded to 4 students from underprivileged families. In addition to the newly established 'IU Scholarship', the singer also donated an amount of 10,000,000 KRā© (approximately $8600) to go toward school improvement funds.
Here the congratulatory video message iu send to her school:
