There have always been organizations, and charities that have given to the poorest of poor countries to try and stop poverty which can lead to unthinkable life choices for it's victims. Today's episode is all about one organization, Trades Of Hope that believes in giving a hand up rather than a hand out. For women and children in impoverished nations; life can be unbearable and difficult to survive.
