TO HELP THE CHILDREN

GALERY

Phoenix organization was born from the desire, altruism and dedication of Ms. Mara who, in 2000, put together a group of friends in order to dedicate time to provide some support to the people in need from Jacarei´s community.

Since then, the group started out delivering gifts and hugs on special holidays to choosen communities and, monthly, we would provide food to some families. In 2006, we started registering the families and adopting some children in order to provide consistent assistance. At that time, we were able to rent small ranches for our annual Christmas party with a lot of toys, candies and joy.

In 2009, we started work with a specific community on the north part of Jacarei city.

Nowadays, Phoenix develops many activities for the Children and their families providing different regular classes as Ballet, Yoga, Environment, Capoeira,Tai-Chi-Chuan, Breakdance, Theater, Computer, Handicraft,Tutoring.

Specially on Sundays, we provide educational aid at Maria Luiza public school. We also take the opportunity to play with them, make handcraft, massages, relaxation and a very special lunch.

For the families we provide monthly workshops with specific subjects, psichological attendance, massage, yoga and much more activities.

At last, but not least, Fênix has also group called “Caravaneiros” responsible to from door to door to obtain from society enough food to prepare and distribute on a monthly basis a basket of food that can support each family for a whole month.
