Did you know

Did you know that each year, India produces more than one million hand-stitched soccer balls, most of them are exported for sale to nations around the world, including the United States. In some of the poorest areas of the country, children as young as six play a part in that industry, spending their days  making soccer balls together with little hope of a better life.
