Chairman’s Report
This year, as in recent years, we have found it very difficult raising funds, due to the ongoing poor economic situation in the UK, from where all our funding comes.
We also have the problem of many funders no longer regarding Brazil as a poor country, despite the immense poverty to be found there. As well as this, child poverty in Brazil gets no media coverage at all in the UK, despite being a lot worse than in many countries which receive huge media coverage.
Despite this, this year our income rose to £69,146. With this increase, along with the help of a relatively strong Pound we have been able to keep ahead of the out of control inflation in Brazil, particularly in Fortaleza, our main area of operation, which has the country’s highest inflation, and continue running all of our projects.
| am pleased to report that, to date, over 12,500 impoverished children and young people have benefited from our work.
As in previous years, our main area of operation is in the city of Fortaleza, located in Brazil’s poor north-east region, where we run feeding and education programs, which are both back to running normally since the reduction of COVID-19 cases there. We have also continued to supply Emergency Aid Fortaleza for families suffering extreme hardship since the pandemic, by way of monthly food parcels and financial support. We started this back in March 2020. Our Vocational Training program in Fortaleza remains on hold, but we hope to restart it next year.
We also continue to run feeding programs in the poor rural town of Sdo Miguel do Araguaia in the state of Goias, and in Ipeuiras and Macambira in rural Ceara, and for children from the indigenous villages of Barreira Branca, Weheria, Mirindiba and Cachoeirina, all located on Bananal Island in the state of Tocantins. This year we were also involved in feeding and education programs in Salvador, in the state of Bahia. This was in partnership with, and administered by UK charity Children of Bahia.
| would like to thank our Project Co-ordinators and our small group of dedicated volunteers, both here and in Brazil, for all their hard work throughout the year. | would also like to thank everyone who has made donations, both large and small, without whom we would not be able to continue this vital work. Last but not least, | would also like to thank our Appeal Patron, Phil Collins for all his support throughout the year,
