This fundraising aims to finance travel costs and implement the artistic education project that AnaRaquel wants to realize in Africa's largest urban slum in Kibera - Kenya, between November 2019 and January 2020.

This dream will come true in a collaboration with the project FROM KIBERA WITH LOVE, a volunteer project started in 2012 by the portuguese Marta Baeta. This educational and social project implemented in a region with a very disadvantaged community, strives for greater access to education which in this community is a luxury because most children in Kibera do not have a family that can secure their future. In January 2013, thanks to friends, acquaintances and strangers who became friends, Marta Baeta was able to ensure that 16 children were entitled to study and one meal a day.

AnaRaquel's goal is, for 2 months, to continue the work already done, sharing her musical knowledge with the children of Kibera to create a final show with this community, based on the traditional Kenyan tale "Mama Panya's Pancakes". - A Village Tale From Kenya" by Mary & Rich Chamberlin.

She attended several workshops and masterclasses with saxophonists such as A.F.Belijar (Spain), C.Delangle (France), A.Bornkamp (Netherlands), M.Weiss (Switzerland), Dele Sosimi (England), among others. She also attended SoundPainting workshops (level 1 course) with Walter Thompson, Alexander Technique with Patricia Gavinho and Comic Sense of the Body with Ricardo Puccetti (Teatro Lume). She also attended several childhood music training sessions at the GermInArte Project - early childhood music.
Between 2009 and 2017 she taught saxophone, chamber music, music training, choir, preschool and early childhood music at Ourearte (Ourém), Coral Luísa Todi (Setúbal), Lisbon Conservatory, National Conservatory School of Music and at the Alentejo Litoral School of Arts in Sines.
She is a member of the band não simão and collaborates with the Orquestra Vicentina. She collaborated with the European Union Youth Wind Orchestra (E.U.Y.W.O.), E.S.M.L. Jazz Orchestra, Metropolitana Wind Orchestra, Metropolitana Saxophone Ensemble and E.S.M.L. Contemporary Music Group, Lusotango, Orelha Negra, among others.
She was part of the cast of Rastilho, a co-creation between Madalena Victorino and various artists created and presented in Aljezur and Bordeira. In 2018 she participate as an actress and a musician in communitary show Pássaros, a Teatro O Bando's creation directed by João Miguel Neca Jesus. Still in 2018, at the invitation of choreographer, educator and cultural programmer Madalena Victorino, she co-created with the dancer Alice Duarte the show Cavalo~Marinho - dance and music for early childhood, and is currently touring the country. Still invited by Madalena Victorino, in 2019 she co-creates the show EVA PORO # 2 - dance and music with the community in Bordeira, Aljezur.
Between 2018 and 2019 she also conducted music lessons for children from 4 months to 5 years at Invento Musical.
She believes in the transformative effect of music and art on people and argues that all human beings should be entitled to a freer education in which each person can develop his or her identity. Among many dreams, one of them has always been volunteering for arts education in Africa. She hearded about From Kibera With Love and got in touch with Marta Baeta, who, since the beginning, helped AnaRaquel to achieve this dream.
