Title of the report: Happy Ending for 2015 at Julio Otoni
The spirit of a community can be present at certain favelas in Rio. At Julio Otoni this has been one of the goals over the years of the Julio Otoni Community Center which many donors have supported through Global Giving. The focus of the project are the 50 children which we engage in our after school programs but often we also create opportunities to benefit many more children and members of the community.
On December 18th we organized a Christmas party for the whole Julio Otoni Favela. Children which attended the permanent programs at Julio Otoni helped creating the activities for the event. There were games, food, gifts offered to the other members of the community. Indeed a healthy and auspicious atmosphere in the spirit of the culture our center wants to propagate in every member of the community: be responsible for its own change.

In 2016 we will celebrate our tenth anniversary. In these ten years the community center has become a reference point of positive transformation for the community. We count that your support will continue.

The story of football players born in Favelas that have become famous represents a very strong symbol of social mobility in Brasil. Every poor kid leaving in a favela pursue this dream. This means that visiting a favela in every space possible you will find children playing.
At Julio Otoni Community Center we always search for partnerships that can provide sports for children. For many years we had capoeira and that was very popular. This years, through a partnership with the British Council, we have football. With the presence of a coach kids learn discipline, cooperation and responsibilities. They learn also to allow girls in equal conditions with the boys.
British Counciul, which is popular for the teaching of English in Brasil, and accross the world, is also providing English classes which kids assist with interest considering that they want to travel abroad, especially to meet their friends, young foreigners that have worked as volunteers at Julio Otoni. Through these two activities it is possible to teach people so many other things which are critical to their lives.
