The Ton-a-Month Club is a Christian non-profit famine-relief
program, based in Seoul, Korea, which has been mobilizing food
aid for the most needy civilian casualties of the North Korean
famine since the second half of 1996. Our organization targets
its aid to the most vulnerable segments of the North Korean
society: children under age 6, orphaned children, single mothers
with children, the elderly, and the handicapped.
We accomplish this by using various delivery systems,
including direct shipment to North Korean made by our own volunteers.
Our policy is to utilize whichever delivery system that can
provide the lowest price/per ton of nutritious foods and can
guarantee the most accurate and transparent mode of monitoring
food shipments. We have recently expanded our services to include
assistance and shelter to North Koreans who have fled to other
countries to escape privation in their own country.
