"Gerando Falcões was very important in my life, because we can learn to live with each other, to help and respect everyone.

I enjoy each day of my life doing what I like, because in Gerando Falcões, we have many teachers and volunteers who are always on our side, regardless of the situation, so I really appreciate everything that Gerando Falcões did for us, the students, contributing for happier days."

We bring free culture and sports for youth in ghettos and favelas and they take it to the world.

Culture and Sport

Sports and culture are educational tools on Rede Gerando Falcões. For example, the tennis lesson is also a math class, because it is based on daily repetition. The painting is a lesson for creativity because a blank screen turns into a spectacle of vivid colors. Boxing is a lesson in emotional skills where the student learns to fall and get up.

Our educational programs work as a human development arena, where educators are the community leaders and share citizenship and teamwork values.

To provide access to sports and culture in areas of social imbalance is a smart way to reduce inequalities and strengthen the education of children and adolescents.

LIFE TRANSFORMATION

Everton has a very strong life history, even though he's so young. He was abandoned by his mother as a child and his father was an alcoholic who ended up living on the street. He had a very tough childhood, but when he entered Gerando Falcões, he discovered his painting gift. At first he was resistant, he did not believe that the school could really change something in his life, but Marcos, the teacher, did not give up on him.

Everton lives in Tubulação favela and helped with his brothers' education. Today he works in Triplex Arquitetura, and studies and volunteers in the paint shop on Saturdays.

Marcela is 16 and was part of the Choir class but felt out of place in the environment and the activities could not meet her needs. Due to the big number of students, teachers noted that she was not excited since she could not read, so she was referred to the dance workshop, where her animation and development were immediately noted. She dances several choreographies, and her big smile is always present in her face. Her mother always accompanies her in class and both are very happy with such a change.
