Vida Melhor turns dreams into reality. Accept the invitation to be part of this transformation story. By financing, you will be investing in changing the life of an elderly person. Let's build a better future together, one step at a time.

Over the 2 years of this program, we have managed to reach 150 very isolated people, carrying out movement classes, physiotherapy sessions, support with health and social services, support with medical appointments and examinations, and intergenerational socializing with young people from the community and local schools.

The maintenance of this program depends entirely on private funders and one-off donations – it depends on your help! Any euro donated will help to maintain the program’s daily activities!

Do you want to contribute to a BETTER LIFE? The time is now! :)
