Forty-five years ago, Dona Jane Sieh planted the first seeds of a story that would transform the lives of many children, teenagers, and families in Jardim São Marcos, on the outskirts of Campinas. This year, that journey took the stage with the show “45 Springs—Bloom Wherever You Are,” a moving tribute to the founder and the history of Grupo Primavera, which allowed us to revisit the dreams, challenges, and achievements of a social project built with love, courage, and great

Being a dancer is much more than just standing on your toes… It means spending months rehearsing the same choreography for a performance that lasts only a few minutes. It means feeling the pain in your muscles, overcoming fatigue, and pushing forward, because every detail makes a difference when it’s showtime! And that’s exactly how the students of the Ballet Arte Project are feeling: eagerly anticipating the annual performance, which will take place in late October. Inspired

Keeping the body active, stimulating the mind, and strengthening social bonds are things that make all the difference in later life. With this in mind, the Vitality Project at the Laudato Si’ Social Center offers a variety of workshops and activities throughout the week that promote the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of older adults. More than just activities, these are moments of fellowship, learning, joy, and appreciation for life! 💚

Some say we’re living in a time when certain values are being lost. That the younger generations no longer have the same patience, the same respect, or the same interest in the stories of those who came before them. But are we creating opportunities for these generations to come together? Childhood and old age may seem like two extremes of life, but in reality, they complement each other. One is just beginning to discover the world. The other already carries many worlds withi

Every story of transformation starts somewhere. Sometimes it starts with an idea. Sometimes with a dream. And often with someone willing to believe that it’s possible to do things differently. That’s how the story of Instituto Anelo began. From this initiative, the Anelo Band was born. And on May 10, 2000, the Anelo Institute officially began its activities, offering free music lessons taught by volunteer teachers. Today, 26 years later, more than 15,000 people have benefited

CBC children learn from an early age to be strong Some children learn, very early on, the true meaning of the word “courage” When there is love, acceptance, and hope, we find the strength to keep moving toward the light.🌻 The CBC Center has always been more than just a place of support: it offers a warm welcome, care, and hope to children undergoing cancer treatment and their families. Because, even during the most difficult moments, we believe that hope must continue to flo

Rare genetic skin conditions may be part of our story, present daily challenges, and require care that often goes unnoticed, but they will never define who we are. Behind skin that looks different lies a person with dreams, feelings, talents, desires, fears, and a strength that goes far beyond appearances.💜 Being rare doesn’t mean being less; it means carrying a unique story that deserves respect, acceptance, information, and, above all, humanity. Our condition may be on our

At the end of August, we experienced a very special moment in Aparecida do Norte, São Paulo, as a dream of one of the directors of ABMTHS, Dr. John Sieh, came true: the launch of the book *Prophets of Hope for the Poor*. The book was conceived and organized by John Sieh in collaboration with Caio Henrique Sponton, a professor and scholar of religion, who, together with Father Edvaldo Manoel de Araújo (C.Ss.R.) and Father Manoel Godoy, wrote the texts. The foreword was written

For many, reaching “old age” is synonymous with uncertainty and fear… But this stage of life has everything it takes to be a time for creating new memories and revisiting those already in our hearts—if approached with a lighthearted attitude. Spending time with friends, chatting, telling stories, and appreciating the simplest things life has to offer may be the secret to staying healthy and happy! And in this regard, the seniors in the Santo Agostinho group are teaching us a
