In the Campo Grande community of São Paulo many people lack access to basic needs such as healthy food and decent living conditions. Social services such as schools and hospitals are stretched thin, and literacy rates are low.
This project with BGR partner GAIA will help women lift themselves and their families out of poverty by supporting training for 128 women in sewing or elder care. The women will be taught the theoretical and technical skills needed for employment as caregivers in institutions or private homes, as seamstresses, or to start their own small businesses. In addition, the project provides resources and assistance to help women get proper work documents, access social services, and improve their families’ nutrition. This project will bring improved earning potential to 128 women, empowering them within their families and communities.
