John is a young Brazilian boy who lives with his parents, Jhones and Maria, on the outskirts of a small town located in the state of Ceara. Their simple home, which is self-owned, has brick walls, rough cement flooring and a clay-tiled roof. It has a tiny bathroom. Running water and electricity are available. Jhones works as an endemic disease combat agent and his low wages are hardly enough to meet basic needs. John is playful and affectionate. He likes playing with toy cars in the company of other kids his age. John attends nursery school and loves painting and coloring. The family is needy and through your support John and his family have the opportunity to participate in important projects in the areas of health, recreation and education.
