    Volunteers of Brazil.

     
    There is much to be said about Brazil.
    The Brazilian helps people in need and that is why I decided to register as a volunteer.
    Since 2009 I record the social actions of other Brazilians.
    Hundreds of thousands of volunteers are helping.
    Sometimes the volunteers are religious people, sometimes are uneducated, but are always people who have a dream.
    This video is the synthesis of these my years as a volunteer and reflects the motivation of a nation.
    This record begins with the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul in the city of Praia de Leste, which guide and assist families living collecting paper to survive.
    Then the volunteers of the Pastoral Care of Elder Person in the city of Manaus, visiting elder people and guide their families on improving living conditions.
    Prof. Enio Rodrigues serves as director of the Institute for the Blind Paranaense in Curitiba.
    And also in the city of Curitiba, the Erasto Gaertner Hospital has over four hundred volunteers that assist in the treatment of patients with cancer and among these volunteers we have the Network of Women Against Cancer is a group of ladies and every Thursday sew sheets and pajamas for patients.
    Volunteers in Brazil has many faces and expressions.
    The potential of people still being discovered through volunteering and are stories that need to be disclosed.
