A new fundraiser came to visit the IB class. The fundraiser was called LiNK. Its purpose to raise awarness about North Korea and the people trying to escape this complete communist country.
The presentation included a video about undercover filmers in North Korea filming the truth about the country. The tape explored the sides of poverty and ruling in complete fear that occurs in the country.
There are concentration camps that house the non belivers or famlies of non belivers. The people who enter the camps will likely die in the camps.
The foundation encouraged us to start a club at CHS and to raise $2500 to help a person who has already escaped. They also talked about the stateless childern. Kids whose fathers are chinese and mothers are Korean. The kids are not recgonized by either country and are abandon.
The presentation included a letter campaign where students sent letters to senators raising awarness about stateless childern and legalizing adoption of them in the United States.
