Students at Project
Favela (Facebook) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Project Favela
website - http://www.projectfavela.org/ Twitter: @projectfavela From Milene: At Project Favela in Tabajaras we have 3 class shifts: morning, afternoon and late afternoon, with math, Portuguese, science, history, engineering, art, theater and music classes, all free for children interested in learning. Before the pandemic there were many foreign volunteers, now only Brazilians, in addition to Scott who is American. We have a group of +/- 20 more assiduous students, from 6 to 16 years old, eager to progress. The school established on the hill, facing the majestic Copacabana beach, has a breathtaking view, it is a tropical forest, it is next to their house and they can reach the project even alone. Community access is very steep, via passable slopes or stairs. On days of heavy rain, a lot of dirty water and mud flows down the stairs and slopes and we avoid opening the school to avoid health problems for the children. In this needy community, there are numerous children who attend official government schools on a part-time basis. Before or after school, many children are idle and unsupervised, or looking after younger siblings. The Favela Project is a shelter of light, love and respect available to children and is a source of pride for those who participate. The children who attend the project know that our space is for us to learn to talk, to respect each other and with respect and tranquility in the heart, and the head is open to learn more and evolve, that's what everyone wants, children especially are hungry for respect and love. We also want to include Female Empowerment in our goals! (Passport) Monster Name: Teddy Dragon Mundo |

Our monster supports and defends all living Life on Land! Our school takes care in its choice of food - cooking local, sustainable and organic products (no meat or fish). What does our monster do to protect life on land? Our monster helps animals in difficulty and gives food to sad people. For a better world, the monster picks up garbage and teaches humans to love nature, takes care by not eating animals, and never makes wars with others. It only loves others. The end. According to me, this monster is a type of super hero who combats criminals and isnt a bad monster. It protects people. It protests to protect animals and humans. It grows vegetables and fights against the mafia. It destroys fears from children and destroys evil monsters. It gives money to the poor. It helps people and stops wars. It saves animals and nature and doesnt pollute. It doesnt capture animals and gives a good life to all! It helps people from the entire world to do the right thing and prays for the war in the Ukraine and other bad things to end. (Nose and Nose Ring) |
