Some Evertonians/ English people may be unclear to all of what @richarlison97 has done to help those in need. Here’s a thread
Richarlison called for justice during the Pantanal fires, the alleged rape of influencer Mariana Ferrer and in the murders of two black men, Joao Pedro, (14)killed during a raid by Rio Police and Joao Silveira,who was beaten to death by security guards outside a Porto supermarket
Richarlison used his platform following Brazil's 2-0 victory over Uruguay. He called on authorities to explain the lack of electricity in the Amapa region. He told reporters “I demand electricity for a people who are suffering.”
“Sadly the people of Amapa will not be able to see my goal today because they have not had electricity for two weeks,” he continued, “they are going through difficult times and I hope they get a solution” I wanted to dedicate the goal and the victory today to all the Amapa people
Abel Braga- Football was the answer to his life. It was a strong sign that, after all his difficulties growing up, he needed football. He is a spectacular kid, his heart is so pure. I am so proud to see him defend several social causes. He has stepped up and provided a voice
Marco silva - His progress is not a surprise to anyone, on and off the field. It was a pleasure to have had an impact on his career, we have a relationship which will last forever.
“The adaptation was not easy, because he was very shy. He still is.
“The adaptation was not easy, because he was very shy. He still is.
He is getting more confident in himself, so he has started to make his opinions heard. What he does off the pitch mirrors what he does on it, he fights for values which are fundamental. He does not forget about the unfortunate, because he used to be on that side.”
Richarlison is close to launching a training centre in his hometown, while distributing 1000 care packages in the region in 2020 alone. He has also helped the parents of cancer patients in Barretos, São Paulo.
In May, Richarlison signed a partnership with the University of Sao Paulo and became the face of the 'Tabelinha de Craque' campaign, which hopes to raise fund for the fight against disease, particularly Covid-19.
Richarlison every day tries to keep a promise he made. Fight for the right reasons, it is the fighters who win. A source close to Richy -He has slowly been building his confidence and then started to direct the values he has always held. @Everton @CBF_Futebol are lucky to have him
