“Good Deeds Are Good – Feeding the World with Solidarity”
The R$ 400 million donated by JBS against the pandemic in Brazil are being invested on the three work fronts of the program – health, social assistance and science. It is estimated that over 77 million people have benefitted from these actions.
The resources were allocated taking into account the diagnosis undertaken using municipal and state health systems, and included interviews and data analysis. This information was evaluated by specialists from the three independent committees of the JBS program in the health, social, and science areas and who, with extensive experience in their respective fields of operation, provided support in defining the actions and projects supported.
