Story of a Ezequiel

Every year thousands of children in coffee producing countries around the world are in the fields picking coffee instead of being in school...which creates a never ending cycle of poverty from generation to generation in these regions. This video tells the story of Ezequiel and how he stopped going to school because he couldn't afford basic things such as a notebook, paper, books, etc.

I have started an initiative to stop this cycle and am currently working with an Non Governmental Organization from Washington to start a pilot program in Nicaragua this year that will focus on preventing child labor in coffee production. Please show us your support by going to the website www.childlfc.com and clicking on join. All we ask is that you sign up, so we can show coffee producers that consumers are demanding coffee that is child labor free.
