"What makes me very happy is receiving a loving hug from my mother. I am also very happy when I get gifts and when I can spend my time coloring various drawings. I love choosing the colors and making each drawing very beautiful and colorful! My dream is to become a driver, just like my mother."

My story
My name is Helena Pereira Carvalho and I am in the 1st year of Elementary School I. My parents separated some time ago. I live with my mother and brother Miguel and, on weekends, I like to visit my father. In my free time, I love to play with my brother and play dodgeball with my friends. I really like to participate in the activities of the NGO Nova Geração Brasil. I like all the workshops, but my favorite is Robotics, because I can work with the computer, assemble robots and use my creativity a lot. It's a lot of fun to learn new things and create my own projects.Why Helena needs our help
Helena is a sweet, kind and very affectionate girl with everyone around her. She shows affection, sensitivity and ease in establishing bonds, contributing positively to the environment in which she is inserted.
Her teaching and learning process happens naturally and gradually, demonstrating curiosity, interest and potential to advance more and more in her development. We believe that Helena has many possibilities to achieve her dreams, strengthen her skills and develop herself fully.
In view of this, the institution recognizes the importance of investing in Helena, offering opportunities that contribute to her educational, social and, in the future, professional growth. Through the activities and experiences provided by the institution, we seek to expand her knowledge, stimulate her potential and strengthen her autonomy, preparing her to build a prosperous future, full of opportunities and new achievements.
Helena is supported by impact partner Nieuwe Generatie Brasil
The New Generation Brasil Foundation was born out of the desire to offer underprivileged children in Brazil a better future. We believe that every child deserves equal opportunities. We do not stop at 'survival', but want to help the children/young people develop towards an independent and sustainable future by giving them (practical) education, with which they can later provide for themselves. Our vision is that a child can only learn and develop if it feels safe. That is why it is our mission to make this happen. We want to start by creating an environment where children feel safe and secure. Where they can really be children and develop and grow from the natural childlike interest. With the ultimate goal of offering a new generation of Brazilians the opportunity: * to develop, * to be able to make their dreams, potential and ambition come true * to be able to support themselves and their future family well.Sponsor Helena
