Why Youth Support Matters:

Education stands as a fundamental human right, and every child should be able to embrace it. Regrettably, challenges such as poverty deprive millions of children across the globe of this basic right. Surprisingly, even in well-developed nations like Portugal, numerous children face a lack of crucial assistance required to sustain their education and chase their aspirations.
