Today is an historic day for Refugees United. Today is the day where thousands of people join in to share their thoughts on refugees, Refugees United and the atrocities millions of people endure every day.

Refugees United is a unique project seeking to reunite families that have been torn apart during their escape from conflict, tragedy and natural disasters.

In order for families to be brought back together, it is imperative that we, as fellow human beings, unite behind the cause and act as catalysts for the life-changing information Refugees United may bring. Only with your help will we succeed, only with your participation will this family search-engine help those in need.

Refugees United is an awareness campaign aimed at the most destitute people among us. It is the quest to shine a ray of light into the darkness surrounding so many, guiding them to the knowledge of www.refunite.org

It takes the strength and will of all of us to help eradicate this problem. A problem of such devastating proportions, yet with such a simple root cause, that we may all spend 10 minutes to contribute to change. Here. Now. Cost free, except for the most valuable you may ever give: Your time and dedication.

Act up. Speak up. Be the voice of the voiceless.

It is a road which will be hard, long and take every inch of persistence, persuasion, optimism and hard work we can muster. It is our sincere hope you will join us in to end the torture of uncertainty so many must endure. The vehicle has been built, the solution has been created, but we need energy. Your words will fuel the fire needed to touch all corners of the world, to empower the powerless.

Only together will we make a difference. United we stand.

Act up. Speak up. Be the voice of the voiceless.

Refugees United

Dear All,

On Nov. 10th, Refugees United and Blogcatalog.com will launch Bloggers Unite in an effort to bring focus on refugees and the hardships they must endure. More importantly, we will try and direct focus on how to solve some of the massive issues facing these millions of people with no home or security.

We would like to invite everyone to join. If some of you represent agencies, NGO's etc. working with refugees or human rights and would like to have your organization featured, please drop us a line. Last time the campaign reached between 7-8 million people, according to CNN. So, the impact is large and we'd like to make it even larger. Please help us in this effort.

Head on over to unite.blogcatalog.com and sign up today and help us spread the word for refugees to be heard!

All the best,

Christopher

Dear All,

From a hectic Refugees United camp, a short report on the coming website and database!

We're in the midst of a beta test of the search module, while putting the finishing touches on the design of the website itself! It's turning out great and I'm pleased to tell you we'll shortly be unveiling a refugee family finder nothing short of state of the art! Great investments of all kinds has been poured into the application during the last many months, and we're more anxious than a 6-year-old the night before Christmas to bring our brainchild into the world. It should be less than 2 weeks until final kick-off!

14...13...12...11...10... Yes, it's finally coming, and besides unveiling the search engine itself, we'll be bringing you into the world of Refugees United and the formidable people and companies we have rallied behind us, to ensure our service reach the furthest corners of the world! You'll be pleased...

Be back soon..

The Refugees United Team!

Dear All,

A little update from a very busy Refugees United camp. We're about to undergo a complete transformation of the database and website, bringing everything to new levels, possibilities etc. and all. Therefore, quiet has been our friend lately, as we gather our forces to unleash the Refunite storm upon the world. So many wonderful things are in store and I do hope you'll visit the Myspace site to sign up for our newsletter.

A new cool little feature we've conjured up for the Myspace site is a badge of support you can download the code for and add anywhere on your Myspace, homepage, blog or what have you.. Honestly, this is one of the most powerful ways for us/you to spread the message and thereby help,  so I'm hoping you'll feature us on your site, if only for a minute.. This is what it looks like:






All right Universal Rock'n'Rollers, I shall return with much more in-depth, down-stream, out where I'm well in over my head pretty soon..

Wishing you all the best,

Christopher

he that speaks the least seems to know the most, while he that speaks the most masters the moment of no reflection or thought, while purporting to know the matters of man. but it must be in the quiet perception of moments passed and understood to perfection, that we find the path to possibilities. so i suppose my new year's resolution will be to speak less. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dear All,

BIG NEWS! As of yesterday, Refugees United has entered BETA TEST status and have begun a major, thorough, in-depth renovation of the site, the search engine, the brand and the ease of sharing the service with the world, bringing www.refunite.org to a complete state of the art by the first months of 2008. We will be introducing a smoothed over, innovative site utilizing all available measures to help refugees across the globe.

We have worked hard and long to secure the right funding to develop the site, and finally this has become reality, sinking a substantial investment into the future of helping refugees reconnect with family and friends. To say we are excited would be a gross underestimate! YES! Welcome to the next chapter in the story of Refugees United. Stay tuned...

 Sincerely,

Christopher

Ah yes, everyone, please accept out humble apology for such an inexcusable delay in updates! Honestly, seriously, we're overburdened, bogged down and basically just too damn busy to ensure the needed time for every task...Sometimes, something must suffer to ensure success.

At the moment, we're juggling more tasks than we should, wearing too many hats, while negotiating the last few pieces of future partnerships. However, good news is our financial needs have been covered and we can finally free the genie of our hopes and allow her to soar to find those in need of our help.

Many things need re-designing in terms of newsletters, fundraising features, MySpace and FaceBook endeavors and so forth and so on. This is in between political meetings, strategic developments and the daily conundrum of life. However, finally, it seems the storm of silence has been weathered and we're about to break into the dawn of a new world. Hold tight everyone, I'm hoping that we'll shortly amaze you with the prowess and possibilities Refugees United bring those in search of loved ones.

I will tune in to this blog more frequently from now on, bringing all you gorgeous supporters brief updates on the works of refunite.org

As always, our most humble thanks belong to you!

Be well,

Christopher
