Support the Pataxó Community in Bahia, Brazil 🌿
I’m collecting contributions to support my friends from the Pataxó Indigenous community near Porto Seguro, in Bahia, Brazil. I want to help them improve their living conditions, preserve their traditions, and create sustainable sources of income for their people. Unfortunately, the Brazilian government does not provide enough support to Indigenous communities, leaving many to face significant challenges in securing the resources they need.
I’ve known the community since 2018, when I first met some of its members at a spiritual festival. In 2019, I accepted their invitation to visit their villages, learned about their way of life, and built friendships that have stayed with me ever since.
Today, they are working on important projects to strengthen their community and create sustainable income on their own terms. Your contribution will help support:
🏫 Renovating a school and providing educational materials for kids
🚲 Purchasing 30 bicycles for tourism activities
🌿 Building tourism cabins and ceremonial spaces
As interest in Indigenous wisdom and traditions grows worldwide, I believe it’s important that Indigenous communities also benefit from the opportunities created around their knowledge and culture.
Every euro counts! At an exchange rate of more than R$5 to €1, even a small contribution can go a long way in Brazil. The actual amount received will depend on the exchange rate and any payment or transfer fees. You can contribute any amount from €1 upwards. Every contribution is deeply appreciated! ❤️
I plan to visit the community again at the beginning of 2027 and share updates about the projects and how the funds are used. Thank you for being part of this journey and supporting the Pataxó community. If you can’t contribute, sharing this page also helps. 🙏🏽
Together, small contributions can help build something meaningful.
With love and gratitude,
