The Kielburger Brothers

The Kielburger brothers, Craig and Marc are a perfect example of activists who created an organization/charity and contribute and work regularly on it. One morning, 12-year old Craig Kielburger read in the newspaper that a boy his age had been killed for speaking out against child labor. He realized that he could have been that boy, and alerted his brother, Marc, and his classmates and friends about child labor. Just like that, by caring enough about a cause to do something, WE charity was created (we.org, Our Story). The goal was simple and direct, help children get out child labor so that they can have a normal, happy childhood and so that they can attend school. However, the Kielburger brothers soon realized that just helping kids to be able to attend school was not enough.
With this, mothers in Kenya can raise their children properly, and they can go to school. On top of We Charity, Craig and Marc Kielburger have also created Free the Children, a empowerment organization, and Me to We, a social enterprise.

They continuously contribute to their charities and programs by changing their goal when they realized it was not enough, building new things and empowering communities to help send children to
