It's now over a year since the COVID-19 pandemic began. In March 2021 Fortaleza began another strict lockdown in an effort to control the spread of the virus which is contributing to over 2000 deaths per day in Brazil.
In the slums this means that children continue to be stuck at home and parents are not allowed to work in the informal sector, buying and selling on the streets.
Hunger, fear of sickness, insecurity and frustration are all on the rise.
CBC has decided to continue our food parcel distribution at this time.
A food parcel is a way to provide strength for today and hope for tomorrow for our students and their parents. We continue to offer daily online classes, parent support groups and other learning support.
Please help by donating a food parcel today $40.

We are bringing a message of hope with much needed food supplies to children and their families in the slums of Brazil.
