This is a close project to my heart that I've been working for 2 years with a friend of mine, Simone Uriartt, for her Graduation Project.

In Brazil, there is a big mismatch between the number of families ready to receive a child in relation to the number of children and adolescents eligible for adoption. The difficulty of guaranteeing the right to family and community life for these children and adolescents led to the development of visual design project to raise awareness among adoption applicants to enlarge their desired child’s profile - older child adoption (+2 years old).

ADOPTION DAY
To celebrate the Adoption Day in Brazil, we did this illustration to share the love.

YOUTUBE EPISODES
Simone created episodes with interviews with adoptive parents to help elucidate the subject of older child adoption. To each episode, there was an illustration about the subject that I developed.

CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN
In order to produce more videos for this project, Simone did a crowdfunding campaign that was really successful! I created the illustrations for the campaign and consequently their rewards.
