Meet Maya, A Rescued Child Worker

Maya worked long hours weaving carpets before GoodWeave rescued her and restored her childhood. She is now a diligent student at Hamro Ghar, GoodWeave's rehabilitation center. Maya is among 3,700 children GoodWeave has rescued from exploitative work, and nearly 11,000 children to receive an education with GoodWeave's support.

This project is devoted to the rescue of the 250,000 trafficked and exploited child laborers in South Asia's carpet looms, and ensuring their access to schooling and social programs. GoodWeave educates consumers, partners with importers, and certifies rugs as child-labor-free, thus taking away the profitability and invisibility of child labor. project reportread updates from the field
