refunite.org



"
A global search engine based on self-sufficiency and anonymity
Refugees United has created a unique search engine designed to simplify the process of relocating family members and loved ones all over the world.
Living in a foreign and new world it often proves an insurmountable obstacle for refugees to find anyone from back home. No central registry has been established to provide interlinked communication and many refugees are afraid of contacting authorities; in addition millions of refugees have never been granted asylum and are therefore living as stateless people.
Most of them endure the knowledge that somewhere children, siblings, parents, spouses and other loved ones carry on lives somewhere in the world wishing, as they, that they could somehow get back in contact with family."




I can not stop raving on & on about the brilliance of this site and the impact this has on millions of families around the world. There is an estimated 32 million refugees scattered around the world with very little or many times no chance to find their families due to  logistical breakdown, prior to refunite.org there was no global registry.
This search engine enables refugees to seek from country to country, last name to last known location, where the engine intelligently narrows down the search with just mininal knowledge to anyone of their origin that matches their criteria.
Like most things that aim to make a difference in the world refunite.org is a non profite organisation founded by two danish brothers David & Christopher Mikkelsen.
Please make sure you lend your support to the cause as most of you out there prepare to spend the holidays with loved ones.

WE THINK YOU ARE A JOKE

shove it  feat Spank Rock by the ever so cleverly indie Santogold is the song of the day.

You worry about the wrong things, the wrong things




Ok so I've had this discussion with just about everybody I know, and I DO NOT CARE what you say, it's all about 808's & Heartbreak. Some food for ya electronic soul, know what I mean? and not just for your gangsta. Its a grown up thing for the ones of you that you don't get it I promise you will catch up with the rest of us.It's gonna take about a year and half at least.


You'd have to be completly Heartless ( get it; how could you be soooo heaaaartless?)to not feel the desperate honesty of Love Lockdown, Amazing, Streetlight & Bad News, especially Bad News and Streetlight ooooh and Paranoid.

Can somebody get me a job in Magazines? please? :)anyways, posting will occur much more regularly so peace out
