Brazil
During the peak of the COVID-19 outbreak, The Blessing Projects provided food and medical support in the Sertão region Brazil.
TBP financially supports two leadership development centers in Brazil. The center in Paulista serves the local community by offering Jiu Jitsu training and hot meals to those in need, with a focus on the homeless and individuals experiencing addiction. A volunteer psychologist is on site and helps abused women and offers mentorship.
Additionally, two rooms in the Paulista center are being renovated for eventual use as classrooms to teach English and other personal development courses such as art and entrepreneurship. A second center in Sertão de Alagoas also offers Jiu Jitsu training for children. Other spaces are used for English classes, Bible study, and as a kitchen to prepare meals for children and others in need. The current facility is rented while awaiting the construction of a new one in the near future.
