PROJECT UPDATE
MARCH TO JUNE 2024
NEW HOUSE
The Portraits of Hope Project handed over house number 34 in Canudos to Betinho! This is always a moment of great joy, gratitude and celebration! It’s more dignified, safe housing and a new home for our sheltered people! Another two houses, in Jacobina, are under construction and are expected to be ready by September.
COMMUNITY CENTER
The construction of a community center in the Alto Alegre community in Jacobina began in conjunction with the Coup de Pouce project in France. The project will benefit at least 138 people and will be a multi-purpose facility with workshops on handicrafts, the environment, school tutoring and music lessons.
ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE OF THE STATE OF BAHIA
The coordinator of Portraits of Hope, Bismarck Araújo, together with volunteers from the FSF in Salvador, took part in the opening of the project "PGE-BA hand in hand with Volunteering". The initiative provided an opportunity to present the work carried out by Retratos de Esperança to inspire and engage the agency's employees to take part in volunteer activities, recognizing the positive impact that volunteering has on society.
