There are many terrifying realities that force countless children onto the streets: domestic violence, being orphaned or abandoned, or simply belonging to dysfunctional families.

For most, there is no way back.

Task Brasil Trust was established in the UK in 1992 in response to the situation of the street children of Brazil. Its projects improve the lives and support the needs of children and pregnant girls living on the streets.

Task Brasil's Casa Jimmy project provides vital out of school support to some of Rio ’s most disadvantaged children and teenagers. The children gain an opportunity to learn English, ITskills, Citizenship, Music and income generating-skills, as well as a chance to engage in social and cultural activities.  The team also monitors the children's academic progress and provides extra support in areas where it is needed.  The new project provides Rio’s disadvantaged young people with opportunities to reach their potential so that they can go on to lead happy and fulfilling lives.
