A sponsor is someone who commits to making monthly financial contributions to provide better support and quality of life for these children and teenagers, most of whom experience deprivation, exclusion, and social vulnerability.

In addition to financial contributions, you can also support them on special occasions such as Christmas, Easter, Children’s Day, and the child’s birthday.

Your donation will ensure the continuation of workshops, projects, and care through professional training, tutoring, sports activities, and more. Click here to learn more about the institution’s workshops and projects.

Your donation of 36.00 per month will impact the life of your sponsored child by providing care and hope for a better tomorrow.

The sponsorship amount is not given directly to the child or their family; it is managed by us, the institution, based on the needs of the children.

Your contribution is therefore applied to benefits aimed at supporting the development, implementation, and monitoring of social programs in areas such as education, sports, health, food and nutritional security, leisure, artistic activities, socio-environmental awareness, and income generation, as well as the operational and administrative activities of the organization.

This ensures that the resources provided benefit the largest possible number of children and adolescents.

Every year, Casa de Apoio prepares a financial accountability report detailing the allocation of all funds received. Click here to visit our transparency page..
