Productive Alternatives for Children
There are very few extra-circular opportunities for favela youth. Our goal is to continuously design and implement new outreach programs, while enhancing current class curriculum and development initiatives. Your contribution will help us provide many at-risk children with an alternative to being on the streets, through our daily activities and partnership programs with local NGOs, schools, and public institutions.
Monumental change begins with small steps. Your contribution is a direct catalyst to help Rio’s marginalized residents make long-term transitions in their lives. We cannot put ideas to practice or grow without your help. When you make a donation to Community in Action, you will automatically be part of our network and receive information about our progress…we promise to keep you informed.
