Ashton Kutcher has saved over 6,000 children from sex trafficking – he’s a real life hero

Say what you want about Ashton Kutcher as an actor, but he’s proven himself to be a human being of inspiring will and the utmost compassion off-screen.

For those who don’t know, Kutcher has been waging a war against human trafficking over the last few years, saving the lives of no less than 6,000 people, if reports are to be believed.

As per PEOPLE, Kutcher and ex-wife Demi Moore co-founded Thorn: Digital Defenders of Children in 2012, an organization aimed at identifying and rescuing child sex trafficking victims.

What began as a dream of empowering those who had no voice has evolved over time, transitioning into a force making serious inroads against one of the most startling and truly despicable aspects of society: trafficking.
