Bolsa Família in the month of May

In May, Bolsa Família benefits almost 21.25 million families, thanks to a record investment worth R$ 14.1 billion. Included in this amount is an additional installment of R$ 150 intended exclusively for 9 million children aged 0 to 6 years, who together are receiving almost 1.36 billion. This means an increase of R$ 22 million compared to April and allowed the inclusion of more than 147,700 children in this age group.

With this update, the average benefit received by families also reached the highest value in the history of Bolsa Família, at R$ 672.45. From the month of June, the amount will receive even more increases with the transfers of R$ 50 aimed at pregnant women and children and adolescents aged between 7 and 18 years.
