They have an Underground Railroad of safe houses to smuggle people out of NK. Then they resettle and provide support. Finally they film documentaries of their life in SK, put them on USB sticks, and smuggle that back into NK to spread discontent and undermine the system.
- thatoneuser 8y agoWow that’s awesome. It says “100% of your donation will help a North Korean refugee reach freedom.” To me there’s some wiggle room for “our 200k salary is a necessary part of freedom.” Not trying to be bleak or accusations, but any idea how much of this is skimmed off the top? At any rate, $3,000 to get a person out of the country and going in South Korea doesn’t seem like a bad cost, just curious how it all funnels through.
- Kevin_S 8y agoTypically non profits will advertise this type of thing, essentially a program ratio of 100%. This is positively correlated with total donations. Usually the way to work around this is to have a large benefactor that agrees to use their funds for overhead/admin/advertising, and then they can say 100% of your donations goes to programs. A sort of necessary pain for non profits because a "bad" program ratio costs them donations.
