Private Screening: #standwithme

The Documentary

Can one person really inspire global change?

9-year old Vivienne Harr believes that she can. When she discovered that children around the world are currently enslaved, her response was simply: "those kids should be playing, not working." She set out to help them the only way she knew how — by selling lemonade. She set up her lemonade stand every day for 365 days and raised over one million dollars.

Vivienne took a stand, and she inspired us to take a stand the only way WE know how — by making a documentary.

We've traveled across the country and the world learning about child slavery and the other people and organizations who are taking a stand. Each person was surprised to learn that slavery still exists today. Every person we've included in this documentary has taken their own stand against child slavery in hopes that will inspire another to do the same.

Now it's your turn.
