Happiness Project

Use Google Translate for your language

The Happiness Project began operations in April 2001 offering five days of pure fun and joy for children and adolescents from poorer classes with cancer.

Each week selected us the childrens cancer treatment in hospitals to participate in project. Monday to Friday, with one brother and parents can stay in wonderful hotels and participate in various tours: theme parks ("Hopi Hari", "Parque da Mônica", "Playcenter", "Mundo da Xuxa"), beach, shopping, bowling, cinema, museums, and now also a full day of leisure in Cologne, an extensive experience in S. Lourenço da Serra, in 2005.
At night, after a day of surprises and fun, are visited by volunteers who go to hotels deliver a kit of art, books, toys, etc. Making them more comfortable and happy after receiving a "good night" special.
On Friday, many activities are held at the headquarters of the Project, including the performance of two clowns, theater professionals, who make the party the kids through a retrospective of the week. Children receive an album with photos of trips and the certainty of returning to treatment with more courage and will to live.

But the project goes well beyond a week of happiness... continues to maintain permanent contact with families through letters, phone calls, taking birthday party cake, party and gifts to the house of children, and donated food baskets and offer vocational courses at its headquarters.

Highlighting the wonderful programs like the "Happiness Project" is very important; especially since newspapers and television like to focus on crime and scandal.

A good post focusing on a worthy initiative. Keep up the excellent blogging.

Hi Adelle!

Eu achei estranho o blog em ingles e citações brasileiras. Por esse motivo perguntei. fico feliz que esteja aqui, porque tenho amigos israelenses que adoram o Brasil.

Quanto as crianças com câncer a maioria possuem leucêmia e são tratadas com dinheiro norte americano que investe muito em pesquisas.

Eu estive durante dois anos trabalhando com as crianças com leucêmia dentro do hospital Santa Casa de Misericórdia, e acompanhei muito dos presentes que eram oferecidos as crianças.

Para elas eram um bom conforto.
A alegria diminuia a dor delas.

Grato pelo seu comentário.
