We have an incredible opportunity to provide a vital resource for North Korean refugee students resettled in the U.S. A generous donor is challenging our PSALT community with a matching grant of up to $25,000 to provide laptops to each NK refugee student in need! This limited opportunity will last until December 31, 2025. Your donation will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $25,000, to raise funds for this invaluable school necessity.

In today’s learning environment a laptop is now a necessity for even young elementary school students. Since many assignments make use of the internet in some form, a student without a reliable computer is at a distinct disadvantage.

We’ve worked with students who borrow laptops from the local library when and if available to try and keep up, or use public computers which limit or prohibit interactive participation for a virtual class session. Others try to manage with their phones for virtual English lessons – juggling the video call while viewing worksheets on their phone at the same time. Parents have requested support with laptop donations or purchases, but we simply did not have resources to meet these requests... until now!

Please make this opportunity possible! This is a one-time gift and all funds raised will be used for students' laptops. Any remaining funds will be fully allocated for educational purposes. Please consider investing in the education of our refugee brothers and sisters by giving to this campaign and double your impact!!
