ORPHANAGE PROJECT

USA English Language Center instructors educate and turn Brazilian children from impoverished backgrounds into skilled employable individuals. USA ELC instructors travel and live in the south of Brazil, to teach English as a Second Language to 48 abandoned children from a local orphanage. USA ELC educators believe that their time and expertise helps make a difference in their own lives and someone else’s. The site of USA ELC classes is the home of 80 orphans ages 5-18. Portuguese is the language spoken in Brazil, the largest country in South America. For more information and to participate in this program contact Dr. Versari at cversari@sduis.edu
