Introduction
13 million people in Brazil are living in extreme poverty. Working with children as young as 2 who may otherwise be on the streets our project provides a safe place for the children to come and learn but before we teach them it is important to provide them with a daily nutritious meal to ensure their brain is equipped, fuelled and ready to learn.
Report
Many children spend their days on the streets leading to lives of crime. We will focus on providing young children with access to education, providing more opportunity for the future. A donation of just $10 will provide a nutritious meal for 6 children. This project improves nutrition by providing students with 3 balanced meals per day. We also provide weekend and holiday food and fruit packages whenever possible to help ensure that children are well fed when not at school. The project also employs a local cook to prepare school meals.
