Bakery as an opportunity for homeless people
Father Julio Lancelloti
The Alok Institute reveres the tireless work of Father Julio Lancelloti, Priest of the Pastoral of the Homeless. We stand in solidarity with the vulnerable population, seeking to create conditions of dignity when people need it most.
The Alok Institute supports the activities of the bakery at the People’s Prayer House, where 1,500 breads and more than 500 cakes are produced daily for breakfast to be distributed to the homeless population.
The initiative from Júlio Lancellotti Priest and the Pastoral of the Homeless is a production carried out by people who are in the process of transition, leaving the streets in search of a dignified life and income generation for their families.
The project also aims to carry out a 5-month training in bakery for homeless people with the right to obtain a certificate and opportunity to enter the labor market, through a partnership with @trampolink21.
People living on the streets are those in extreme poverty who use the street as a living space and livelihood. It is urgent to look at this population and provide dignified treatment through essential services, autonomy and income generation.
