There is a good story on CNN about Flavio Canto, a 2004 Brazilian bronze medalist in Judo.  He started a youth training school in the favelas of Rio de Janerio that has been very successful in helping kids not only learn judo but also study, get scholarships and improve their lives. I just thought the BE community would like a nice story on an easy Friday.

Here's the article:
