Your iPhone has a human cost. In Congo, children risk their lives mining cobalt, often for just $2 a day. While corporations like #Apple and #Samsung profit, thousands suffer. At least 40,000 children work in these mines. Whose lives pay for your convenience?

Children, women and men in Congo risk death mining cobalt for our phones and electric cars. Many have already died. This genocide is ignored while Big Tech companies profit from exploitation and consumerism. We can no longer look away. Write “Free Congo" SPEAK UP!

Children in Congo are risking their lives in dangerous mines to extract coltan for smartphones and tablets. Tunnel collapses and toxic gases threaten their lives daily. Our technology must not cost them their childhood. Stop child exploitation.

For over 30 years, eastern Congo has suffered wars, violence and exploitation. Our land’s vast mineral wealth fuels this crisis, while foreign interests profit. But Congo is not anyone’s promised land. Our land is not theirs. Congo belongs to the Congolese people. #FreeCongo

I truly appreciate everyone who has shared/donated. It’s been 6 months of trying to raise funds to evacuate, but the wait means using some funds for food, rent, fees & basic survival. So we need $1,120 more to cover. Kindly donate & share🙏🏾👇🏾

CONGO DESERVES THE WORLD'S ATTENTION
Your phone runs on Congo’s minerals, yet Congolese people see little of the wealth. Children as young as 7 mine cobalt by hand while armed groups fuel war. A green future cannot be built on Congolese suffering. #FreeCongo #CongoIsBleeding
