Our Campaign is about the child labor which is so common these days. We are seeing it at every other spot like on restaurants children are serving as waiters, some are working in houses as servants. Campaign’s Aim is to spread awareness about the child Labor, that children should get education first then he/she should be over the age of 18 years to work. Our aim is to prevent this act and to save our children. We run campaign about child abuse, we observed that most of the people are not giving it too much important because it is happening everywhere. Everyone is saying the same that they are helping their parents to bare the expenses of their homes. Many people were against too on this act, because as a human being we should understand that no child will like to do a labor instead of following his/her dreams.

Children in Pakistan are victims of various forms of violence (physical, psychological, sexual) and exploitation, including economic exploitation and child trafficking.
