"My dream is to become a great soccer player. What makes me happy is making new friends, playing soccer and participating in parties. I also have the desire to travel and get to know the beach."

- Samuel Silva

My story

My name is Samuel Silva Santos Lima and I am attending the 4th year of Elementary School I, in the morning. My favorite subject is Portuguese Language, because I love reading and listening to stories, which helps me imagine new worlds and learn new things. In the afternoon, I participate in the activities offered by the NGO New Generation, and my favorite class is sports, because I really like to play soccer and learn about different modalities, in addition to being able to have fun with my friends. I live with my father, my mother and my older brother. In my free time, I enjoy playing, watching television, and playing soccer, activities that make me happy and excited.

Why Samuel Silva needs our help

Samuel is a very sweet and polite student, but he is slow in the teaching-learning process. In addition, he has a vision problem that requires the use of high-prescription glasses, which can interfere with some activities. The institution wants to invest in Samuel's future, offering all the necessary support so that he can overcome his educational difficulties and achieve success in school results. Through the activities offered in the professional, social and educational spheres, Samuel will have specialized monitoring, which will contribute to his development and so that he can conquer better opportunities in the job market or in Higher Education. In addition, the institution offers diversified activities that promote social and emotional development. In this way, it is possible to support Samuel in an integral way, helping him to become a confident, happy and successful young man.

Samuel Silva 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.
