Go centers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As part of the effort to spread the game of Go throughout the world, several Go centers were founded in the US, Europe and South American. A large part of the required funds was contributed by the Iwamoto Foundation. This foundation was founded by Iwamoto Kaoru (1902–1999), donating 530 million yen from his own means.[1][2][3].
