What comes to mind when you hear the word "childhood"? Perhaps you imagine family dinners, school activities and holidays with grandma and grandpa.
Thousands of young people in Colombia, South America, cannot relate to such warm childhood memories. Their innocence vanished long ago in a volatile atmosphere fueled by drug wars for more than 40 years. Guerrilla and paramilitary groups deprive little ones of a positive upbringing and education in exchange for the promise of compensation and status of owning a gun.
When you hear these facts about enslaved children, it's overwhelming. But there is good news. These young people have a way of escape, and you can help!
