Child Care Health Committees
This committee registers all children at risk. There are families with many children, families with single mothers, teenage girls with children, and families where the parents do not look after their children. The Child Care Committee works with those families and their children to improve living and health conditions.
 
Education Committee

This committee works with getting children to school and assisting the schools to solve their problems. This inludes providing school supplies and uniforms required by Brazilian laws, but not provided by the government. Parents with many children cannot afford to send all their children to school. The Education Committe will also assist with after-school activities such as tutoring, arts and sports. Creating sports opportunities will help children develop good habits, team work and building future dreams.

The Project Leaders make the projects well known in the area, and encourage people to get together to solve the issues that are essential for not only achieving better living conditions, but also assuring that no child is left behind due to the lack of opportunity to develop their full potential in life.
