Human Trafficking Awareness

"At the center of Goya Cares is a heart, and our heart reaches out to these victims of child trafficking and children who are suffering from mental illness so that they may have hope to live in a world where their life is valued, their freedom is a reality and their mind is at peace. They need to be reminded that they are precious gifts from God." - Bob Unanue, President and CEO of Goya Foods
