My Name Is Child

In 2012 more than 500 million children were economically exploited. It’s still a huge challenge to free them. Global Friends Music will give half of all revenues for this song directly to proactivists and movements in the affected regions to support their fight against child labour. (50% will go to the artists to produce more songs against child labour.) The children need your support !NOW Spread the word.
