BLS LiNK
Redefining North Korea by focusing on the people, while rescuing and providing resettlement to refugees and pursuing an end to the North Korean crisis.
The North Korean humanitarian crisis stands today as one of the worst but also least understood and reported human rights issue in the world: hundreds of thousands of North Koreans are thrown into prison camps where they are forced to perform labor and are also tortured with starvation and even ex*****on. Through our efforts, we hope to raise awareness and money so that we can bring North Korean refugees to freedom and safety by providing resettlement and support.
Hey! We at here at BLS LiNK hope you guys enjoyed your Thanksgiving. Do not worry, we have upcoming projects in the works! Stay tuned :)
Hey guys! It's the start of a new year so expect great things from us here at BLS LiNK!
