On October 8, 2011, Georgia Tech LINK participated in AARC's Rice Festival at Stone Mountain Park. A special thanks to our AARC correspondent Ms. Julie Lee, for coordinating and making it possible for GT LiNK to booth at this event as well as to our sponsor, Ms. Eun Choi for providing supplies and funding for the booth.
From 11am-5pm, GT LiNK gave free lessons in folding paper-stars, while spreading awareness of the North Korean crisis and how the Atlanta community to contribute to the crisis. Thank you to all who contributed to our star-jar! We will be auctioning/ raffling off the filled jar soon! Also, thank you to those who gave donations, we received $38.78 in donations through your generosity. :)
