Dom Helder Câmara Foundation: Transforming Lives with Love and Hope

We believe that every child, teenager, and young person deserves the opportunity to grow up in an environment of peace, respect, and opportunity. The Dom Helder Câmara Foundation was born from this ideal: to be a place of welcome, education, and transformation, where each person can discover their talents and dream of a better future.

Inspired by the human and Christian values that marked the life and mission of Dom Helder Câmara, the foundation acts as an ecumenical social project, open to all, without distinction. Here, love for others translates into concrete gestures of care, sharing, and commitment to life.

In our activities, we seek to develop body, mind, and heart through experiences that educate and inspire.

We offer:

  • Sports
    Which strengthen the body and teach the value of discipline and teamwork.

  • Dance and music
    Expressions that awaken creativity, sensitivity, and the joy of living.

  • School reinforcement
    To support learning and encourage a love of study.

  • Healthy eating
    Taking care of the nutrition and well-being of each participant.

More than just a space for activities, the Dom Helder Câmara Foundation is a haven of hope, where affection, listening, and example help prevent children and young people from getting involved in the world of drugs and violence. Here, every life is valued, every smile is celebrated, and every achievement is another step toward building a more humane and supportive future.

With faith, love, and dedication, we continue to sow the seeds of transformation—because we believe that educating and welcoming is the first step to changing the world.
