A samba school rises to Rio Carnival's top league, bringing an economic boom to its poor residents
81% Informative
Unidos de Padre Miguel samba school returns to Rio 's top samba parade league for first time in 57 years .
Last year , they received 900,000 reais ($ 150,000 ) from City Hall , missing out on lucrative sponsorship deals.
The shift has sent the school's budget this year ballooning more than tenfold, including nearly 2 million reais from the city.
The school has already invested a significant portion into the community, funding local seamstresses, carpenters and welders for parade preparations.
The 66-year-old says that creating jobs in Vila Vintem and being at the world-famous parade is worth every cent .
She wants to see more next year — hopefully still in the top division.
“Carnival brings a lot of jobs. Not only here, but everywhere,” she said.
