This in depth article about Craig Kielburger is an amazing example of the International Baccalaureate characteristic of Caring. Craig Kielburger was only a twelve year old boy when he heard about another boy his age who had just gotten freed out of child labor and then killed by heartless factory owners. Because he was extremely empathetic and caring,he decided to take action. Craig had decided to start an organization called free the children which was dedicated to fighting child labor.Up until today, Free the children has build over 600 school rooms that educate 55 000 students each and everyday so that the kids in countries of poverty can have a future outside of child labor. If this is not called being caring i have no clue what is. I believe that not everyone has the courage and compassion to do what Craig Kielburger did. He is a true hero and one of the most caring people alive!!!
