Living on minimum wage

Sueli Paes Alecrin, 48, plays with her daughter in the city of Aguas Lindas, about 50 km (31 miles) from Brasilia, August 2, 2013. Sueli takes care of her 11-year-old daughter Amanda Suellen Lima who has cerebral palsy. Sueli lives on a minimum wage of R$678 per month ($294), which she receives through social assistance because of her daughter's condition, which is part of a government program offered by the National Insurance Institute (INSS) and the Ministry of Social Development and Fighting Hunger.
