"We believe in profit - we are a business - but we also believe business can make a difference and inspire social change," says Christopher Davis, the director of international campaigns at The Body Shop.

Thank u for this story, the world needs to kjnow about thisI am a nigerian, I spent the last twenty-six years of my life in the united states , been there since my teen years. You have to do to this story about Nigerian(s) too. To my surprise this kind of thing is still going on in this country(Nigeria). Little children, as young as ten years old are being use as slaves. Some by their parents, these kids work seven days a week sometimes twelve to fifteen hours a day for less than a dollar a day.. The parent is the one getting the monyt at the end of the mounth. Pls u have to include this in your story. I am doing something to help some of these kids but i cant do it alone i need your help. By doing this the powers that be will wake up and do something about it. PLs, PLs, contact me.
business is for social change and not for unwelcomed parading. everry atire should be directed fowards decency and to our creator- Lord Jesus. keep on keeping on. The lord loves us all.
