Joshua Hall By

Kim and Kisenat

At 17 years old, Joshua spent his holidays volunteering with his family in a community service. He helped children that didn’t have money to buy clothing, books and school supplies.

What would you do if someone needed your help?

In 2010 he found out about the slavery in Ghana.

Children were sold by their desperate parents.

Joshua wanted to do something about it so he applied to one of the community servers and he was one of the five young people to travel to Ghana.

Child Slavery in Ghana

When he was there he became friends with Donald, a slave kid.

When he came back from Ghana he started to make presentations at Universities and the United Nations to teach them that slavery is not over yet.
