5 Ways to help end Child Labour
1) Support Fair trade- Be conscious of the products you buy. If its too cheap to be true, it was probably made by underpaid, overworked children in crammed factories.

2) Get informed- Educate yourself about the problems and what your government is doing about it. Participate in discussions with your family, friends and colleagues.

3) Sponsor education- If possible, help in sponsoring the education of a child from the poorer countries in Africa or Asia. There are several NGOs on the internet helping to connect donors with needy children.

4) Make ethical investments- As an investor or share holder, support companies that are sustainable and ethical with humane practices that don’t include child labour.

5) Support NGOs, initiatives and Campaigns: Get vocal and involved in fundraisers and campaigns. We have compiled a list below on initiatives that you can start with.
