How about stepping up your love to the disadvantaged people with 
actions and in truth?

The ISR Foundation has conducted large-scale humanitarian programs over two decades since its program inception in 1995 in DPRK.  The target beneficiaries are the disadvantaged people, such as children, pregnant/nursing women, elderly and the disabled in DPRK. The guiding principles the ISR Foundation and its founders have implemented for the past two decades of humanitarian programs in DPRK are to: assess needs felt by local people, meet the prioritized needs with a small yet solid pilot program, and scale up after earning trust of hosting peop0le and organizations.

Given the herculean scale of healthcare challenges to address in DPRK, the ISR Foundation values partnership with governmental and non-governmental organizations conducting humanitarian programs in a transparent, verifiable and law-abiding way.  Thus the ISR Foundation has partnered with several NGOs based in North America and Europe, collaborated with UN agencies such as UNICEF, WHO, and WFP, and created synergy by working with leading scholars of medicine, public health, disability and infectious disease.
