Slavery still exists. People are held against their will and forced to do work for no pay even in the United States.
The cost to free a slave is well within most people's budgets.
- $92 will free a child from slavery in Ghana.
- $14 will buy that child school books, a uniform and book bag to attend school for a YEAR.
- $174 will allow that child's family to start a business and become self supporting and prevent re-enslavement.

It is within our reach. If only people would be willing to open their eyes and see this and reach into their pockets to help out.
Exactly. I think most people don't realize how wide spread this problem is and would be horrified to realize that it exists here in the U.S.
