Brazilian Service Project concludes one more project in line with its main objective which is to bring to better living conditions to community day-care centers in empoverished community providing them more hygiene and confort. Since early life, children must feel that SCHOOL is a pleasant place and cozy place to stay. The environment should always be trusted by the children and their parents who leave their little ones under others’ people care in order to work and take care the family. The employees at these Day-care centers must to have at least the minimum resources which is a clean and decent place for them to work and educate the children. Once again, thanks to all volunteers that made one more BSF project to happen. And thank you to all the Day-care center who contributed and help with us during the project. |
