"We need this socio-urban transformation all the time, because we have old cities, cities that can't take care of their own maintenance. Artistic intervention in these central places is very important. First of all, to improve the quality of life of those who are there. When we arrive at a place that is beautiful, that is organized, that is painted and has an artistic proposal, we can already see that the population is much more careful to keep the place organized, clean, and this improves the quality of life of those who live in the region. Not only those who live in the buildings, in the houses, but also those who live on the streets. Secondly, it brings another focus of tourism to give more visibility and entrepreneurship to the place. This project will generate opportunities for people who live there in the region, who will be able to bring their products and improve their income. I'm very happy! I want to see this project happening soon and we'll be there together enjoying every moment!"
Tropa da Solidariedade is a growing NGO (Non-governmental organization) where priority is given to assisting people, living on the streets and in marginalized areas of the city of Rio de Janeiro, in creating sustainable and empowered lives for themselves.

We in the Solidarity Troop come from different communities and slums in Rio de Janeiro and around Brazil. We understand the pain of hunger. That is why we are passionate about giving back to the neighborhoods who raised us and once helped us.
Shackal (SHK), a famous local Rapper and past resident of local slums in Rio de Janeiro, created a chain of people, The Solidarity Troop, committed to helping the less fortunate during this difficult time. The purpose of the The Solidarity Troop is to bring food and basic necessities to the marginalized communities.
During this period of the pandemic it is enforced upon people to stay at home as it is believed that this is the most efficient way to fight Covid19. People are complying but they have been left to fend for themselves.
Through this initiate and with the generous donations we receive, we can transform the funds into basic packages which include food, medicine and essential cleaning products.
Please access our link and in only a minute of your time, help a family in need.
We are already helping more than 100 families in Rio de Janeiro with these actions but presently we have a queue that now reaches almost 300 people.
We can help all these people with your assistance and understanding that giving is saving lives.
Donate any amount you are able or if donating is not possible, then please pass this on to another you know can.
All of our joint action in helping each other right now, we believe is the best way to deal with this pandemic situation: Act as Power, Help as Power, Be Power.
about
The Troop of Solidarity, founded by Shackal, a well-known rapper from Rio de Janeiro, presents the Rio Anti Pandemia Project, emerging in the midst of the COVID-19 catastrophe.
The main objective of Rio Anti Pandemia Projects is to provide assistance with food and basic needs to those forced to face the most challenging situation during this pandemic.
It is a critical moment for part of the population in marginalized areas, who now face hunger and the inability to take care of themselves and their families, even with basic needs. Quarantine forced many unemployed people and our brothers and sisters lost their already small incomes. Their basic rights to food and clothing have been compromised. As the government is not providing the necessary support at this time, the Rio Anti Pandemia Project is leading the way in creating a solution to this urgent situation as soon as possible.
The Rio Anti Pandemia Project is committed to helping those most in need and those unable to earn a basic living during the period when restrictions on the pandemic are in effect.
Our allies are our greatest source of support. With the assistance of local partners and around the world, we hope to reach as many people as possible, bringing love and solidarity to their lives during these difficult times.
Our goal is to provide donations of basic food packages continuously during this period; each package will feed a family of 4 for approx. 2 weeks. Through this product supply initiative, we hope to reduce the stress and the struggle they are currently experiencing.
We ask that you participate in our initiative with any donation that you can contribute. Your assistance will be different between food on the table for a family or not.
Donate now and join the solidarity troop in action.
