The project needs a vehicle, in order to effectively service the daily needs of 350 children and staff.  Without it the project would be paralyzed. The vehicle allows us to deal with the complicated logistics of working in Brazil and to be ready in the case of an accident or emergency at the project.

Kombi’s are strong, reliable and fuel efficient. They typically last up to 10 years, even with such heavy use on very poor roads.

A Kombi is a lifeline to the project, it transports…..

  • Food and water
  • Maintenance supplies and parts
  • Staff and students on field trips and visits
  • Our mission team to visit churches & schools
    and to do evangelism
  • Staff to the bank, to pay bills, to buy equipment,
    materials and services for the project.
  • Food parcels to needy people in the favela
  • Staff to house church and to visit children in their homes

The Kombi is also needed as…

  • An Emergency vehicle (in Brazil’s slums you can’t rely on an ambulance)
  • A host vehicle for visitors from overseas

We recently found this video by a company called The dark side of tourism in Brazil.  We believe that this 10 minute video gives a very good explanation of the two sides of Brazil and the problem of sex tourism. The video is 10 minutes long and we’ve added it to our favourites on our You Tube Channel.
