"My dream is to become a great basketball player and what makes me very happy is to play with my friends. I also love spending time with my family."

- Sávio Rafael

My story

My name is Sávio Rafael Correia Telles Pereira, I am 11 years old and I am in the 5th year of Elementary School I. I participate in the NGO's activities in the afternoon and in the morning I go to school. Mathematics is my favorite subject, as I have a little difficulties, at the institution I receive reinforcement classes and assistance with the psychopedagogue, so that I can develop better. My younger brother also studies at the NGO. I live with my mother, my two brothers and my stepfather. My biological father passed away when I was still a baby, so I don't remember him. In my free time I like to spend time with my family, play basketball and play with my friends. I am very affectionate and cheerful.

Why Sávio Rafael needs our help

Sávio has many difficulties in the teaching-learning process, so it is very important that he is accompanied by specialized professionals, as well as school reinforcement classes. In view of this, we want to invest in his educational and cognitive development, so that he has great opportunities in the future and can make his dreams come true. In addition, Sávio lost his father early and also needs emotional support, so that he has hope for a prosperous and happy future.

Sávio Rafael 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.
