Documentary film-makers Jason Russell and Laren Poole created the site "Invisible Children." They and their team use media to tell the stories of these children and to encourage people to help by raising funds to educate and counsel former child soldiers.

Among the organizations doing this work are The Coalition to Stop the Use of Child Soldiers, the International Rescue Committee, and Amnesty International.

Where does Nestle buy cocoa?

Nestle buys their cocoa beans at commodities exchanges. At the commodities exchanges, Ivorian cocoa is mixed with other cocoa. The cocoa beans they buy are originally from cocoa plantations in the Ivory Coast. In the Ivory Coast they have many cocoa plantations where children work as slaves. This means that Nestle is okay with child labor. Children are trafficked to these plantations. Human trafficking of children is a form of human trafficking. It is defined as the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring, or receiving of children for the purpose of exploitation. Exploitation of children can take many forms, including forcing a child into prostitution, other forms of sexual activity, or child pornography. Child exploitation can also include forced labor or services, slavery, or practices similar to slavery, servitude, the removal of organs, illicit international adoption, trafficking for early marriage, recruitment as child soldiers, for use in begging, as atheletes (child camel jockeys or football players) or for recruitment for cults.
