I visited the organization Association with my friends during our vacation in Brazil. We discovered an incredible family, and from the very first moment, we felt at home. Leisa, Maisa, and Maristela are amazing people who truly take care of you. They created this association years ago, founded on love for others, and they dedicate themselves to it every single day, wholeheartedly believing in their mission. They are building something extraordinary, and I'm so happy to have had the opportunity to meet this wonderful project. If you happen to visit, know that you'll leave with your heart full.Thankyou

My experience at the organization was beyond what I imagined. From the very first day you feel at home. Maisa, Maria Estela, Leisa and Fernandho welcome you like family. It's a deeply immersive way to discover Rio, taking part in community life, joining and even helping plan activities for the kids. You're surrounded by music, joy, and genuine connection every day. Even without knowing the language, you start to understand and communicate so quickly with them that it feels effortless. I leave with gratitude, unforgettable memories, and the hope to return.

I am eternally grateful for the incredible experience I had with the organization. Volunteering here truly feels like a home away from home; this family-run organization cares deeply about their volunteers. When I was sick, I was taken care of, when I needed something, they would be sure to help out, and they went above and beyond in every aspect. The work expected is very reasonable and very rewarding, and you get to engage with and help the community. I am so happy I volunteered here, but I'm sad my time was so short. I could not recommend this experience more, and I'd love to return to the organization soon :-)
