Sponsor A Child

Name: Lazaro

Country: Brazil

Birthday: 07/09/2020

Lazaro is a young Brazilian boy who lives with his parents, Silas and Maria, and with a brother, in a small rural community located in the state of Ceara. Their simple home, which is self-owned, has brick walls, rough cement flooring and a clay-tiled roof. It has a tiny bathroom. Running water and electricity are available. Silas works as a day laborer in agriculture and the family receives a small family allowance from the federal government. Lazaro is intelligent, playful and talkative. He helps his mom by putting his toys away. He likes playing ball and with toy cars in the company of other kids his age. He has a dog and a cat he is fond of. Lazaro is considered to have good health, in spite of the poor living conditions and diet. He attends nursery school and loves painting and coloring. He says that he will be a soccer player when he grows up. The family is needy and through your support Lazaro and his family have the opportunity to participate in important projects in the areas of health, recreation and education. 

Ending child poverty begins with Lazaro. It’s easy. It’s impactful.
