Nordestina

This is an isolated place in Sertao della Bahia, Brazil, where the land is dry and non-fertile, a semi-desert caused by the severe drought experienced in recent years.

In the past, the Foundation helped this community by building 4 wells and by funding the purchase of seeds to revive cassava plantations and vegetable gardens. In this way, about seventy families have found new hope and can, once again, farm fields and sell their products in the markets nearby in order to support themselves. In 2014, an additional contribution was given to create workshops where women cook the products they cultivate, thus managing some school canteens.
