Christian families set free from the yoke of bonded labour in Pakistan’s brick kilns (because of the generosity of Christian donors) are, in turn, releasing their brothers and sisters from that same burden, it was reported in March.
1,001 families have been freed since 2017. Despite earning incredibly low wages, they have gone on to help a further 86 families caught in the quagmire of debt.
Many of the freed families have voluntarily and joyfully set aside a small portion of their wages to donate to a revolving loan fund. Having been desperately poor, and dependent for so long, the freed families are thrilled to be in a position to help other believers.
