MAKING A DIFFERENCE in Brazil.  

In 1976, Heifer International gave a presentation to a group of Ontario dairy farmers on the high infant mortality rate in Brazil, largely due to a lack of protein in their diet.  That’s when it all began, and the first S.H.A.R.E. project was born as a group of Ontario farmers came together to support food security and nutrition for impoverished rural families in Brazil.

From 1976 to 2018, S.H.A.R.E. worked with a number of local organizations in Brazil to support initiatives directed at ending hunger and poverty by helping rural families and communities help themselves.  For 27 years, Bob Thomas was a S.H.A.R.E. Project Manager in Brazil, and after he retired in 2018 he decided to write a book about his journey with S.H.A.R.E, and the country and people he loved!  

The book highlights many S.H.A.R.E projects that touched the lives of thousands of people in Brazil, enabling them to feed their family, make a living, and cultivate hope for the future.  This book is a testament to the success of S.H.A.R.E. and its efforts to support healthy communities through sustainable economic, social, and environmental projects.

Bob’s book, MAKING A DIFFERENCE in Brazil, is now available in the S.H.A.R.E. online store.   Purchase a copy for yourself and/or your friends and family, and enjoy an insightful journey through Brazil with pictures and commentary on many S.H.A.R.E projects, the local life and cuisine, and the resilience and resourcefulness of its people and their communities.
