Noah is a very young Brazilian boy who lives with his grandfather, Jose; mother, Debora, and with an aunt and a cousin, in a small community in the state of Ceara. Their simple home has brick walls, rough cement floors and a clay-tiled roof. It is self-built and has a tiny bathroom. The father has never provided any financial assistance whatsoever. Jose sells the recyclable materials he collects on the city streets and Antonia (aunt) works as a kitchen assistant; the combined income, however, is far from enough to meet basic needs. Noah is a sweet and docile baby boy. He is being breastfed and also takes some fruit juice. Bright colored and noisy toys attract his attention most. Noah is considered to have good health, in spite of the poor living conditions and diet. Through your support Noah and his family will have the opportunity to participate in important projects in the areas of health, education and nutrition.
