Arca's expansion has started!

We are happy to share this with you all: since our GlobalGiving Campaign of April 2021, something wonderful happened : we have started to renovate and expand our site! While still facing the pandemic, we remain in the need to expand our capacity to provide shelter. Currently, we have a waiting list of more than 100 children and teenagers waiting for a vacancy at Arca do Saber, and a significant increase in the demand for vocational courses at Arca do Crescer, not to mention the urgency of providing conditions for children and young people in the slum to have access to computers and internet to keep up with the trend of hybrid teaching continuity with online classes.

Thanks to the donations received through GlobalGiving platform, we were able to launch the project and it is up and running.

We are also very proud to introduce you with our newly graduated students in the professional fields of Bakery, Logistics and Sales. The graduation ceremonies took place during the month of July and some of the students have already received job offers. 

Arca do Crescer new graduates will enter our 3rd session of mentoring program to help them expand their professional lives.

For a few months now, musical classes have been running for Arca do Saber’s children and despite the very cold weather,  our percussion band was ready to perform for the traditional “Festa Junina - June Festival”. 

To help Arca’s families and students cope with the economic crisis induced by the Pandemic, we continue to distribute food baskets every month. 

We would like to thank you all for supporting Arca’s work and the inhabitants of the favela Vila Prudente in this moment of challenge and transformation.
