Pedro is a very young Brazilian boy who lives with his parents, Jose and Thayana, and with his sister, Thainy, in a municipality which belongs to the metropolitan region of Fortaleza, state of Ceara. Their simple home has brick walls, ceramic tile floors and clay-tiled roof. It is rented and has a tiny bathroom. Jose works as a machine operator and earns very low wages. Pedro is a sweet and active baby boy. He is called Arthur in the household. He is a toddler and gets into everything. He takes bottles as well as solid foods. Playing with colorful and noisy toys keeps him amused for hours. Pedro is considered to have good health, in spite of the poor living conditions and diet. He is still too young to attend school. Through your support Pedro and his family will have the opportunity to participate in important projects in the areas of health, education and nutrition.
