"My dream is to conquer a profession that I really like, that allows me to build a better future for myself and my family. What makes me happy is playing football with my friends, it's a way to have fun and share good times with them."

My story

My name is Wandson and I am in the 1st year of high school. I live with my mother and sister, who are also part of the NGO Nova Geração Brasil. In my free time, I like to play football. My favorite subject is Physical Education and I'm a Flamengo fan. I like all the classes offered by the NGO, but my favorite is Soccer, because I can improve my skills and play with my friends.

Why Wandson needs our help

At first, Wandson was a shy student, but over time he has become more communicative and participative. His family moved from another state to São João del-Rei in search of more life opportunities, and so we want to invest in his future, so that he has a promising and prosperous trajectory. Throughout this process, Wandson managed to overcome several barriers and advance in his difficulties. In view of this, we fully believe in their potential and we want to continue offering support for their development, so that they appropriate knowledge and achieve an excellent placement in the job market or enter Higher Education.

Wandson 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.
