Support us through your donation

The individual donations are essential for the projects we support! Currently, we can receive them in 4 different ways. If you are interested on donating, please fill our Donors Form and follow the steps below. If you have any problems or doubts, feel free to contact us!

Fiscal Incentives to Corporations under Lucro Real Regime
Brazil offers several tax incentive schemes to individuals and companies who donate to charities. For corporations who are taxed under the “Lucro Real” regime, they can deduct up to 2% of operational profit before considering the value of the donation. They can do this by donating to registered charities qualified as a Civil Society Organization with Public Interests (OSCIP - Organizações da Sociedade Civil de Interesse Público). FBB is qualified as an OSCIP.
Procedure:
1. Donor (Corporation) will make a bank transfer to FBB, the beneficiary
Bank details:

Agência: 0085
Conta corrente: 0695129-5
CNPJ: 60.478.344/0001-32

2. FBB will provide donor (corporation) with a declaration form as a receipt of its donation. This form is an official template approved by the Secretaria da Receita Federal whereby the beneficiary comits itself to fully use the donated amount towards social objectives, including the name of the person responsible for carrying this out, and ensuring that no profits or bonuses or advantages be distributed to any directors, sponsors or associates in any form. Donor needs to keep this document in file for tax declaration purposes.
Corporate Social Responsibility Projects
We are open to discuss projects for corporate partners who have Corporate Citizenship programs; to meet their social responsibilities related to improving standards of living and quality of life which are aligned with our Cause and what we can offer.
The Welfare team would be glad to receive donations in the forms of hygiene products used by our assisted residents at Stacey Wing. These would help us reduce our monthly costs.

We have been the honoured beneficiaries of inheritances in the past, of community members with a desire to share part of their fortunes with the wider community. This is a powerful way to leave a legacy, as can be exemplified by Mr. Ashworth (the name of our investment fund) and Ms. Stacey (who names our Stacey wing at Lar Elite up to this day).
