On the first weekend in August, joy once again reigned in the home of a family on the outskirts of Campinas, SP. This time the family chosen to have their house renovated by the Projeto Doce Lar was Edna Dias Santos.
Edna is a cleaner at a hospital in Campinas, her husband is a bricklayer's assistant and of the couple's three children, only the eldest is old enough to work, he is a young apprentice at a car dealership.
Despite the difficulties, they have kept the family together and haven't given up on their dreams.
For more than 15 years, the family has been building their house with a lot of sacrifice, on land that they are still paying for.
The house only had a bedroom, kitchen and bathroom. The family's living space was under the roof at the front of the house, as they didn't have a living room!
The Projeto Doce Lar took on board the family's needs and with the help of donations and 50 volunteers, the long-awaited renovation and construction of new rooms took place!
