LiNK Holiday Campaign!!
Hi y’all,
This entire tour we have been working long and hard to raise awareness about the North Korean Crisis along with raising support and funds for LiNK’s programs that assist refugees. But in addition to accomplishing these goals we have been promoting a new campaign called The Hundred. This is our current project and also a part of LiNK’s 2009 Holiday Campaign.
Our short term goal for this year is to raise $50,000 dollars by the end of the year to help rescue refugees from our shelters. However, our long term goal is to raise $250,000 to rescue One Hundred refugees.
The greatest thing about these campaigns is that it’s completely possible! However, none of these goals will be reached unless we contribute our part and spread the news so that others would join us in these campaigns. I am so excited to see the progress of the 2009 Holiday Campaign and I can’t wait to celebrate the moment we reach our goal of $50,000!
Please check out the LiNK website for The Hundred!

This website features a short video that hopefully inspires you into seeing the impact and success that a collective group of individuals can make upon those who need to be rescued. In addition to this the website provides plenty of information about the campaign at large along with ideas of how to help raise the funds to meet our goal of $50,000.
After watching the video I was greatly impacted and quickly wanted to donate. Since my birthday is coming up soon, I have decided that I am going to make it into a fund raising birthday by asking each of my friends to give money to The Hundred instead of to me. I figured that I would probably spend money on things that simply do not matter in comparison to helping rescue a refugee who’s life is in great danger. I truly hope my friends and I can make a good contribution to the Hundred.
I truly hope that you would consider finding creative and innovative means of raising the funds to make the 2009 LiNK Holiday Campaign a success! LiNK believes deep in their heart that ordinary people can help make an extraordinary goal come to fruition, and hopefully The Hundred is just the beginning of hundreds more!
