Growing Healthy Futures: Celebrating Children and Community in Fortaleza

Celebrating Children’s Day is one of the most joyful moments of the year for the Saint Martin Foundation. From our second Children’s Day event held on October 11th, the St. Martin Foundation was excited to share a few more highlights from our celebration in Fortaleza—simple moments filled with smiles, games, prizes, and the pure happiness of childhood.

Each child who participated received encouragement, care, and the chance to simply be a kid. These smiles remind us why our mission matters: when children feel seen, celebrated, and supported, confidence grows and communities thrive.

We also took time to encourage healthy habits, including choosing nutritious foods. Our goal is to support each child’s growth—not only through celebration and play, but also through learning and positive routines that strengthen families.

Thank you to everyone who made this day possible. Your support continues to open doors of opportunity for children and families throughout Fortaleza.
