Supporting the Queen of Peace in Brazil

by Humberto Souza

Every week, NGA HR has a community project in at least one of our offices. This week it was the turn of our Brazilian colleagues.

October 12 in Brazil is a public holiday. Officially, the day of Holy Mary, it is also known as the “Children’s day.”

Over the past few months, the team has collected toys (new and nearly new) and delivered these to Rainha Da Paz (Queen of Peace) (www.abcrainhadapaz.org.br) a children’s charity. Whilst it was just a small gesture from us, the joy and educational advantage these toys offer to these children is huge.

NGA HR is proud to be the employer of so many generous people who give their time and skills to those less fortunate in each of the countries and regional locations we have offices.
