Help bring education to every child in the Amazons

Building schools in the middle of the Amazon jungles of Brazil isn't easy, it takes a team effort.  YOU are an especially important member of our team.

Our work to end the education crisis can't start without your support.  Whether you choose to join us by giving once, or on a monthly basis, know that your generosity will help children transform their world.

Your $20 donation will buy 125 tijolos (bricks).  A $100 donation will buy 625 tijolos.  By donating $50,000 you will build a classroom or housing for 2 teachers.  A $300,000 donation will build a two classroom school.

To be a student in the floodplains comes with many obstacles. That is why the work Sunshine Life does is so important. To us, education leads to understanding and understanding leads to changes of thought. These changes, in turn, allow someone to transform their life. On one of the walls of a flooded school we visited there was a quote by Paulo Freire (a renowned Brazilian educator and philosopher) that encompassed Sunshine Life’s thoughts. It read; “Education does not transform the world, education changes people. People transform the world”. That is why we need your help tackling the problems surrounding education in the Amazon. By joining us, you will make sure every child receives the education they deserve, thus empowering the children to transform their world for the better.
