Task Brasil is a small charity with a long standing mission. We have been operating for over 20 years helping to give vulnerable street children in Rio a safe haven and to improve their lives.

Life in Brazil becomes tougher each year and the legacy of the Olympics has not been helpful to the local people of Rio. In fact, any funding that we used to receive has now evaporated as the city municipality is bankrupt. As such, any donations raised are even more important to us. At least this will try to ensure that the local people don't lose out too much.

Our office in London is now run entirely by volunteers and therefore even more of all monies we raised go directly to our projects in Rio.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.
