Kim Phuc Phan Thi is the South Vietnamese-born Canadian woman best known around the world as “The Girl in the Picture” and the “Napalm Girl.” In 1972 during the Vietnam War at age 9 she was immortalized in a Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph titled The Terror of War that depicts her running naked in agony following a napalm strike in her village Trang Bang, Vietnam. Once a living symbol of the atrocities of war, for nearly 30 years she has been a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador for the Culture of Peace and the founder and president of The KIM Foundation International, a non profit dedicated to helping child-victims of war, violence, and poverty. Kim shares her story of hope, purpose and joy in the face of terror, and she credits all of it to the love of Jesus.
