Help! I want to help North Koreans
I want to help North Koreans on the road to freedom. But, how can I help?
For years this question plagued my mind. Even throughout writing my book, I wrestled with this question. Many of you, I’m sure, have asked the same. However, it wasn’t until recently that I found a good answer. For me, I was able to find the answer when I had the opportunity to attend the Bridge Conference sessions held in Washington D.C. and Los Angeles this May and June.
I met individuals who direct organizations whose purpose is to support North Koreans who leave their country and give them a voice, as well as for those who remain—a voice for those whose human rights are being violated and to expose a regime who has demoralized and dehumanized their own citizens.
