The choice of a deliberate social responsibility programme rather than fragmented philanthropic actions

ARCA DE NOE
The NGO Arca de Noé runs a kindergarten school in the heart of the Vila Prudente favela, one of the oldest favelas in São Paulo. The school takes cares of one hundred children between 4 and 6 years old, all day long. The school employs teachers from the favela; they all have a good educational background and work under the school director and the pedagogical coordinator’s supervision.
The goal of the school is to prevent the children spending their time in the streets or watching TV and to give them the ability to enter the primary school with good conditions. The program also focuses on the development of children motor skills, their social integration and a basic alphabetization.
There is also a special focus on families with visits to their home and basic food supplies – “cestas basicas” based on a voluntary nutritionist’s recommendations – for the most destitute people.
