FSI Video Newsletter #1



You will see several photos of North Korean refugees and FSI staffers in the first FSI Video Newsletter. The people that you rarely see are the donors and fundraisers who make this work possible. We plan to do a regular Video Newsletter to keep our supporters updated about FSI's activities and hope they will see themselves in the great work we are doing.
Three main links from this week.
Overcoming Writer's Block: Eunmi Park (Youtube) (fun video talking about writing her book)
FSI Video Newsletter #1 (YouTube) (wrap up of FSI's activities in the last week)

Chosun Monthly magazine [Korean language]

  Chosun Monthly Magazine has made an announcement (in Korean) about the Seoul Honorary Citizenship award that I received on December 9, 2022.  Our Korean staffers say that the magazine is a big deal in South Korea. Here's the overall roundup of media about the award. In the next two months, I have extended interviews coming up in two different magazines, one in the USA and one in South Korea. Both articles will be in respected publications so they should raise awareness of FSI's work that your support makes possible. * * * Support FSI via Stripe or PayPal . https://donate.stripe.com/3cs28F5IAcc85IAaEF or PayPal .

Casey Lartigue awarded "Social Contribution" Award (Hansarang)

On April 20, 2017, I was awarded the "Social Contribution" award by the Hansarang Foundation.  When I was first nominated, my response was: "Hahahaha! I won't win, but it is a great honor to be nominated."  It was until I was a finalist that I took it seriously. Then instead of saying "I am honored to be nominated," I wanted to WIN ! Which I did! I was awarded a plaque, 10 million won (about $9,000), and many congratulations from many people (including other awardees that night).
