About Me

The Refugee Club started on October 10th. We support all international refugees who do not have a voice. A refugee is someone who is internally displaced in their country, for example, Pakistan Earthquake victims, and someone who seeks political asylum from their country and are under threat from their country.We are based in Greenwich High School, and for those who are in other schools, you are welcome to start a club at your high school and work together with us.

My Interests

Right now we are concentrating on the North Korean Refugees, who are not recognized by the international community as refugees because of their ties to North Korea and China. Also we are trying to fund the Pakistan Earthquake because those in Pakistan are displaced citizens who are in need of help.We are constantly looking into more refugees from different situations and are open to topics that members bring up.
