A Special Kind of Gift
Your presence is the greatest gift we could receive
Having you with us to celebrate this moment is already everything we could wish for. As we begin this new chapter, we would love to share this joy by supporting a cause that holds very special meaning to us.
Instead of a traditional gift registry, we invite you to give a different kind of gift by supporting DARA Institute, an organization transforming lives in Rio de Janeiro and across Brazil.


Why We Chose DARA Institute
Last year, we had the opportunity to visit DARA Institute through the Philanthropics consultancy, and we had the great pleasure of meeting Vera Cordeiro and her team.
DARA is internationally recognized for its award-winning poverty alleviation methodology: the PAF (Family Action Plan). This personalized approach works closely with each family, addressing health, education, housing, citizenship and income generation simultaneously. The PAF has received numerous awards and has become a leading case study, implemented in several cities across Brazil and in other countries, proving that it is possible to break the cycle of poverty.
If you feel inspired to contribute, your gift will help strengthen and expand this impact.
With love,
Fernanda & Max
