The town of Rio Bonito do Iguacu, in southern Brazil, was devastated by a tornado that destroyed nearly 90% of the city. This project aims to provide immediate reconstruction assistance, including the delivery of mattresses, sheets, blankets, and food supplies; and helps local schools resume activities, ensuring education and dignity remain priorities as the community rebuilds lives with Grupo Foco's support.
On November 7, 2025, a devastating tornado struck the town of Rio Bonito do Iguacu, in southern Brazil, destroying nearly 90% of its infrastructure, leaving hundreds of families homeless and without access to food, clean water and electricity. The disaster also disrupted education for children and youth, as most schools were damaged or lost essential materials. With limited government resources, the community now faces an urgent need for recovery support to restore stability and hope.
This project provides immediate aid to families affected by the tornado, delivering food, bedding, and hygiene kits. It also supports local schools with materials and repairs so children can safely return to class. Together, these actions help restore dignity, stability, and hope to the community of Rio Bonito do Iguacu.
By rebuilding schools and supporting families, this project helps restore the social fabric of Rio Bonito do Iguacu. Beyond immediate relief, it strengthens education, resilience, and community bonds, empowering children and families to rebuild a safer, more united future. The floods that devastated southern Brazil last year taught us how vital rapid, coordinated, and compassionate action is for lasting recovery.
