On Sunday, the Love146 Taskforceat the Blue Route Vineyard Church in PA rolled up their sleeves and squeezed, squeezed, squeezed the love out of lemons for yummy lemonade! Their lemonade stand raised $75.
Kudos to Kate and Sue and everyone who helped to raise awareness and funds so sweetly! And a special thanks to Sammy, Ben, Joseph, Emma, and the rest of the kids who have already chosen to use their energy to be a voice for the children we serve.

So often I am told that children are too young to be told about human trafficking and modern day slavery; however there are age-appropriate ways to inform children about the issues that affect children that are the same age as they are. And when children are informed - they are moved to act.
Thanks so much for sharing this inspiring story.

That's so true Carol!
I remember, when I was only 6 years old, my mother was telling me about Unicef and the plight of many children in the world, and even at that young age, it opened my eyes a bit more and every since I have had children in the world on my heart and mind. It can affect children from a young age, and such a concern and desire to help others can stick to you for life. It doesn't necessarily go into one ear out of the other. Just because a child might be too young doesn't mean they won't understand nor care. They can care, and it can stir up a passion to do something about it that can stick with them for life :).
