Theo is a young Brazilian boy who lives with his parents, Francisco and Franciana, and with a brother, in a small rural community located in the state of Ceara, Northeastern Brazil. Their simple home has brick walls, rough cement floors and a clay-tiled roof. It is self-built and has a tiny bathroom. Francisco works as a general helper for a local firm and his earnings are far from enough to meet even the most basic needs of his family. Theo is cheerful and talkative. He likes playing with toy cars in the company of other kids his age. He has a dog and a cat he is fond of. Theo is considered to have good health, in spite of the poor living conditions and diet. He attends nursery school and loves painting and coloring. Through your support Theo and his family will have the opportunity to participate in important projects in the areas of health, education and nutrition.
