In May, the João Paulo II Educational Center received a visit from the Salvador Arena Foundation, which has become a great partner in the project.
The Salvador Arena Foundation is based in São Bernardo dos Campos and has a wonderful history of authentic social commitment. The visit was marked by a meaningful exchange, strengthening a bond that has produced important results for the community.
The Salvador Arena Foundation was represented by Sérgio Loyola, Manager of Development and Social Promotion. During the meeting, he was able to learn more about the work carried out at the João Paulo II Educational Center and to see the direct impact of the PAPS Program (Social Projects Support Program) promoted by the Foundation each year. The highlight of the visit was the new industrial kitchen, completely renovated thanks to the support received. The space, which now has a modern structure, guarantees even greater quality and safety in the food offered to students.
In addition to seeing first-hand the improvements brought about by this partnership, Dr. Sérgio Loyola had the opportunity to experience the Center’s routine, talk to educators and students, and feel the welcoming atmosphere that characterizes the institution’s day-to-day activities. Each meeting, each conversation, was an opportunity to show how the support received has been reflected in care, dedication, and concrete changes in the lives of children and adolescents.
We continue with gratitude for this joint journey, certain that, with partnerships like this, we can continue to broaden horizons and create new possibilities for our students. The support of the Salvador Arena Foundation is more than a contribution; it is a gesture of trust in our work and in the transformative potential of education.
