Sophia's birthday fundraiser for FSI

For my birthday this year, I'm asking for donations to Freedom Speakers International. I've chosen this nonprofit because their mission means a lot to me, and I hope you'll consider contributing as a way to celebrate with me. Every little bit will help me reach my goal. I've included information about Freedom Speakers International below.
Freedom Speakers International empowers North Korean refugees to engage in public speaking. About 500 North Korean refugees participating in FSI since 2013 have studied English, public speaking, and career development. Working with partner organizations, FSI has hosted 21 North Korean refugee English Speech Contests for participants to give original speeches in English.

Thanks to a generous South Korean donor, Freedom Speakers International is running a Matching Challenge to empower North Korean refugees.

From June 22 to August 3, forty supporters of FSI set up donations in response. The donor has pledged to donate $100 for every fundraiser set up — up to 40 fundraisers total. Additionally, an American donor has secretly donated $20 to each fundraiser.

At FSI, we empower North Korean refugees through education and public speaking. Many are now giving speeches around the world, writing books, and telling their stories in English for the first time.

Our Korean donor has pledged to continue this Matching Challenge. He is inspired by the people who support FSI.

By starting or supporting a fundraiser, you’re helping them continue that journey.
Even if you don’t raise any money, just setting one up helps us unlock more support.

Set up your fundraiser. Show your support.
Together, we can amplify voices that were once silenced.
