Children in Africa are being forcibly recruited as child soldiers, forcing them to kill others, including their own friends and family. They live in fear of being taken from their homes by soldiers. Raising awareness of their plight through sharing their story with others is seen as the best way to help set the children free and put an end to their suffering.
