Friend, Today is World Day Against Child Labor. There are an estimated 150 million children involved in child labor globally. AND there are over 2 million child laborers growing the cocoa that goes into the chocolate you see on store shelves. Child laborers in cocoa are exposed to harmful pesticides, carry heavy loads, work long hours, and handle dangerous tools, like machetes – all of this harms the development of children – it harms their future. During the pandemic, chocolate is reported to be the number one snack in North America, and we get it – chocolate IS delicious. But, it tastes even better when you know it is part of the solution! |
