Living on minimum wage

Sueli Paes Alecrin, 48, towel dries her daughter after a bath 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. She lives on a minimum wage of R$678 per month (US$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.
