hello and welcome to another abby sort of despite the challenges hosted later chopra every now and then we come across amazing individuals who out of their way go out in the community and do amazing things today y guest is a high school teacher from a touch in new jersey he had come across in news what touched him and he later his who had been trafficked one meal a day worked eighteen hours a day with speeding and looked at the difference between my daughter's life and this boy's life the difference was just too great oh my go dive in the water to untangle the nets it's a manmade lake dammed up a river and so they covered all the trees so when they throw the nets in they get tangled and in the trees in the branches children have to dive in the water untangle the nets and sometimes they get caught in those nights and drown other times they get hurt one of our children lost an eye or diving in the water and was forced to dive back in the next day with one eye so very cool conditions very cool really so definitely it would touch anyone's heart you know like a lot of time we hear the story and we feel bad and it just you know suck us and mind for a while and people go on about th and i could discuss current event issues with them and we talked about we decided we should do something together it was kind of a joint decision ok when we students and i and we kind of motivated each other and it's been that way ever since i pushed them they pushed me two kids can do that and what we could accomplish so next year came along as my student would you like to do social action project that you had to cross sections of the class and they were very excited to do it i asked them what topic they organization for migration i o m is a large multinational organization four hundred offices around the world to terms with displaced people my children are considered internally displaced i say displaced within the we want to get him moved to and they would let us because the second wife when not allow him to go the fisherman had three wives ok because the bride price for his mother was paid and he was the payment so that's a number of years five six ten years when you take them out of that captivating what are the biggest challenges you have and the first to go to a rehabilitation center where they work with social been anywhere between three and nine months the only needs of the children ok so we don't just take them out of that and move them right into the families and then the children were trafficked sometimes for a couple years sometimes for ten years well they trafficked warsaw help somewhat with the in the number of years how easily they'll be able to adjust back to the regular years can some of them are turned out to be good students were able to progress through school and doing well with a woman doing catering actually learn the business from her and i want to set her up in a business so for her to go through all the years of schooling i really junk child when she was probably in class four or five was just too difficult individual and helped along the best we can to help their needs ok so logistically you have so many different challenges with each child and each child's experience and yes there is in captivity their ability to not only cope emotionally but also our being an older age and maybe our elementary level in a school the poverty of the families or this is a world of poverty there's no families there are middle and last summer when i was there were asking me the head of the school about the attendance of some of the students and they said they were missing a couple days a week because they didn't have lunch and they were going jobs  get a little extra money so we felt that was ridiculous i want them to school every day and for one hundred dollars a year we will provide them with lunch for the year and which is not a very small amount just right so  lot of these children would grow up and rescue others because there's naturally some sympathy is there for them and with the each child you have a different set of issues that you have t right yet there's definitely some anger and emotional i think that has to be overcome but we have this i have a social worker who works for me in ghana i pay his salary and he looks after the children and he assesses the family before he will bring them back ok so we don't feel it's a safe situation we don't have any also his name is wisdom and visits the families four times a year ok and brings them extra food so we give them rice in oil and other stay other staples to help them be able to have enough food and to be able to care for the families i have so once we started doing that we haven't lost any of the children kind of stabilized everything once they were placed back to their own families yeah now if we if the families are good we move with the kids to a boarding school i think so there are situations let's let's talk a little bit more unite them and are there cases that you are not able to locate families or relatives and they end up for you know the then they've been forced the family is ok one of the girls like her family years have passed away so she moves in with ask you to tell us a little bit the kind of support that you might be looking kind of challenges that you face and then funding can help right you know the everything time you know w were able to help more children when the more money we raise the more children we could save just to care for the children we've already rescued costs about eighty thousand dollars a year ok and then in addition is the rescue  year we want them to have a career want to be that's going to actually independent they had a large part of their life stolen from them me easy to find traffic children identify them because they don't smile they don't respond they're  depressed and there's a real sadness about them and once we're able to get them away from that situation it's amazing how quickly you see a smile combat childhood return ye so we are able to you know help them regain their life so once they are in your school or the facility that you have they go through either a schooling children how best to help them ok and let's come back to new jersey and how your students now every years do you have a new set of students or how do you keep them engaged into this the students are amazing then we had volleyball game then we had a dance the dance was evolving by then five dance studios from the area to come and perform at the high school that raised over six thousand dollars and we had a dinner and we had a tricky  trucking keeping track of traffic victims around the world so that's now her job at the state department was very excited to see that when she took the work we do to a career wow that's amazing ye how it's impacted touched many lies by yeah i mean it's always filled with joy and you know low hardship you know you see the poverty the the and you also see the happiness and yes the always going back and forth twenty twenty more children later this year and into help them in as our children get older some of them are going on the school road and have already achieved secondary school some have finished you take a test to what secondary school you go to and then we have children are in secondary school doing well more entering and those are all boarding schools of as they get older sometimes the care of them gets a little more expensive but we're or now or the technology available today there are a lot of online training options available do you have something in mind that might be the internet access there is not not to great case so that i would love to some point be able to skype with our school and my school here but the technology there is now allowing are there any other to be trained on and love to become part of their community and prevented further what kind of training in your words that you would like to give them and be ready for it's for them to choose what their dreams are and what they like to pursue and you know what if we make it possible we'll tell you we tell them i'm going to pay for your high school i'm going to pay for your college  vocation training so i'm willing to do it you just need to know pursue it so i think that gives them the motivation to work as hard as they can and we've seen in the america with people who sponsor children at young ages  a great need there are thousands of children who are still working in news life threatening conditions on the lake pre commit change to education works hard to help these children and any hope that people out there are able to give us would be greatly appreciated and we promise to put that used to see more children to help them have a better future like so we have your website and contact information and they can go visit the website and contact you and i thank you all so much coming and sharing  story of and specially the story of
