The vast majority are in slavery over a medical debt for a life-saving procedure. The initial loans are never more than a few hundred dollars.  If they can’t make the payments they are taken as slaves to work off the debt in brick kilns.  Fines, interest, penalties, and other unethical charges are levied making it physically impossible for them to ever pay the debt.  A debt that is passed down to their children if the parent dies.

The average cost is $327 per person. That’s not a typo. People who have been living as slaves, oftentimes for their entire life, are able to go free for $327.  Entire families are set free together for less money than a weekend at Disney World.  This includes enough to help them get on their feet and help them establish a source of income. 

The workers live in deplorable conditions, the water they use to mix the soil gives them skin diseases and the hazardous fumes from the billowing black smoke during the brick-making process causes asthma and other diseases and increase the risk of contracting tuberculosis. There are no proper toilet facilities, at the kilns or where the workers live. The women have to go in the open, either late at night or early morning. They are harassed, their photos are taken and these women are then exploited.

They have no hope of ever being free until God moved on the hearts of generous conduit donors to pay their debt, which was all from medical bills. Today they are free. More than 250 families have been set free.! Thank you for your generosity in making this possible. If you want to help follow the link below.
