Over the past decade, hundreds of thousands of North Koreans have fled their country into neighboring China in search of food, medicine, shelter and even freedom, despite facing the chance of being caught and forcibly sent back to prison camps, torture or even execution. As this crisis continues with estimates of 300,000 refugees hiding in China and hundreds more in Southeast Asia today, the world remains silent and the North Korean people have become an afterthought.
This holiday season we ask for your help – not only to remember these refugees but to consider the possibility of providing a way out. Many are searching for an opportunity to escape but simply cannot fund their own journey. But with your support and LiNK’s networks on the ground, rescuing 100 refugees IS possible and it is our goal to do this as soon as we can.
We can’t launch “The Hundred” program until we have the funds. Will you help us raise $50,000 by December 31st?
Together we can literally change the course of people’s lives.
