Voices of G.O.A.'L Members

"G.O.A.'L est l organisation la plus efficace en Corée. Non seulement, G.O.A.'L gère parfaitement les dossiers humains mais en plus donne une visibilité professionnelle au adoptés Coréens qui veulent pénétrer le marché du travail sur place. La position de G.O.A.'L est certainement un atout pour les autochtones et la communauté qu il représente."

 -Denis Sungho (Belgium)

"Since first connecting with G.O.A.'L in 2006, the organization has provided tremendous services both locally and globally. As I have navigated my own birth family search and reunion process, the organization has provided amazing support particularly surrounding DNA testing. Each year G.O.A.'L provides free DNA testing and they have integrated this within the search & reunion process. They have been strong advocates in bringing awareness about the significance of DNA testing and the potential impact it has within the birth family reunification process."

 - Robyn Shultz (USA)

 

"Dans le souci d'une relation de proximité adaptée à chacun de ses adhérents, G.O.A.'L est le seul organisme capable d'offrir une palette de services conçus pour répondre au mieux aux demandes de sa communauté. Depuis près de 2 décennies, G.O.A.'L a su développer un réseau de qualité, destiné à l'intégration des adoptés au sein de la société coréenne, et à une meilleure appréhension de ses codes culturels." 

- Felix Kong (France)

 

"När jag hade bestämt mig för att åka tillbaka till Korea för första gången så dök G.O.A.'L upp på Google och information om deras "First Trip Home". Jag sökte och blev lyckligtvis en av dom som fick vara med i 2014 FTH gruppen. All G.O.A.'L personal och volontärer fick mig att känna mig välkommen, gav oss så mycket information och obetalbara upplevelser. G.O.A.'L gav mig  den bästa introduktionen till Korea som jag någonsin kunde ha fått! Är så tacksam för allt arbete dom gör för adopterade inom Korea och runt om i världen! Stödjer med glädje deras fundraiser."

 - Hanna Herbertson (Sweden/US)
 
 
 

"G.O.A.'L has helped me since my return to Korea in 2005 by connecting me with fellow adoptees and providing other helpful  services. After 10 years, I'm very delighted to see G.O.A.'L continue to help returning adoptees, dedicating its time to meeting  their needs as best as possible despite the limited resources they have."

- Benjamin Hauser (USA)

 

"From my first experience with G.O.A.'L as a participant on the 2010 First Trip Home, I've been so impressed by the experience, expertise, and understanding of all staff and volunteers. Founded and run by adoptees, with a welcoming office in the heart of Seoul, G.O.A.'L is unique amongst adoption-related organisations. G.O.A.'L has assisted me on numerous occasions in various  ways and I believe that their role within the international adoptee community is invaluable."

 - Hana Crisp (Australia)

 

"As a long time G.O.A.'L member, I can personally attest to the great impact it has had on the community. From helping with  birth  family searches, to organizing community events, to providing a safe place for adoptees to gather and socialize,  G.O.A.'L continues  to be a valuable resource for those who seek out its services."

 - Dan Ryu (USA)

 

 안녕하세요 해외입양인연대에서 약 7개월간 일했던 최윤제라고 합니다.
 해외입양인연대는 투명하게 운영되며 가족같은 분위기의 따뜻한 공간입니다. 
 입양인들에게 직, 간접적으로 많은 도움을 주며 자칫 외로울지도 모르는 한국에서의 생활을 가족이자 친구로써 든든하게 함께  해주고 있습니다. 이런 해외입양인연대와 동행하실 분들을 찾습니다. 많은 도움 부탁드립니다.

 

 

“G.O.A.’L war meine erste Anlaufstelle als ich nach Korea gezogen bin. Ich hatte zwar Koreanische Freunde, aber mit den Fragen die ich über Adoption und Visa Angelegenheiten hatte konnte nur G.O.A.’L weiterhelfen. Viele Adoptiere wie ich haben von G.O.A.’L profitiert und ich glaube fest daran das auch in der Zukunft viele andere von G.O.A.’L profitieren. Ich bin sehr dankbar und stolz was G.O.A.’L für mich und unsere Gemeinde geschaffen hat.”

- Jin Hartmann (Germany)

 

 "Wanneer we verhuizen naar korea dan is het altijd een geruststelling om te weten dat G.O.A.’L altijd klaar staat om ons,  geadopteerden, bij te staan! Bedankt G.O.A.’L voor jullie werk en inzet en bedankt om ons altijd te steunen!"

 - Sul Hee (Belgium)

 

"G.O.A.'L has been a mainstay in the international adoptee community since it's inception.  Even prior to moving to Korea, just  knowing that there is an organization in Korea like G.O.A.'L comforted me: an organization for adoptees, run by adoptees.  I was  more than happy to refer people to G.O.A.'L.  Now, living in Korea, I’ve accessed many of their services especially with obtaining  my F4 Visa and ongoing birth search.  I found community in attending their Seollal, Christmas, and Chuseok parties, seminars,  workshops, and Cooking Classes.  Many of my friends have utilized their Korean Language Scholarships, DNA Testing, and  countless others have embarked on an amazing First Trip Home through this wonderful organization.  Their staff is dedicated and always willing to do what they can to assist
                            the Korean adoptee community."

                            - Kristina Alger (USA)

 

“Ayant travaillé pour G.O.A.'L pendant un peu moins d'un an, j'ai pu me rendre compte à quel point cette organisation était importante et unique en son genre, de par les services qu'elle offre mais aussi le réseau qu'elle a réussi à développer depuis sa création. G.O.A.'L m'a également aidé dans mes démarches afin d'obtenir mon visa et grâce à eux tout s'est très bien passé. J'espère donc que staff et bénévoles pourront continuer à assister les adoptés retournant en Corée pendant encore longtemps.”

- Pauline Pierre (France)
