Brazil Shines! Our Second Annual Children’s Day Celebration with Saint Martin Foundation

On October 11, 2025, the Saint Martin Foundation hosted its second annual Children's Day celebration in the vibrant community of Horizonte (Praca da Juventude). This year’s event was bigger, brighter, and more heartwarming than ever, filled with laughter, joy, and unforgettable moments for children and families. Thanks to our amazing partners, the day was filled with excitement, entertainment, and a true sense of community.

A Day of Fun, Laughter, and Giving Back

We were thrilled to welcome a fantastic lineup of entertainment and activities that made the day truly special. Children enjoyed thrilling raffles with incredible prizes, including brand-new bikes and skateboards, while also competing in fun games and races. The inflatables and dance competitions were a huge hit, with kids showing off their best moves to the beats spun by DJ Duda Silva, whose energy kept the crowd dancing all day long.

In addition to the entertainment, we were excited to collaborate with @boladegudeentretenimento, who brought beloved characters like Mickey Mouse, clowns, and other beloved cartoon mascots to life, bringing pure magic and smiles to the kids. The event was also made more meaningful thanks to the support of @coletivorainbowhorizonte, a local LGBTQ+ nonprofit, and @associacao_amah, an organization dedicated to raising awareness for rare diseases and disabilities. Their involvement helped create an inclusive, diverse, and welcoming atmosphere where every child felt valued and celebrated.

No celebration would be complete without delicious treats, and this year’s event had plenty of popcorn, sweets, and snacks to keep everyone fueled and happy. From the laughter-filled games to the heartwarming moments shared with new friends, it was clear that this day was about more than just fun—it was about building connections and supporting our community.

A Commitment to Inclusion, Fun, and Community

At the Saint Martin Foundation, we believe that every child deserves a chance to experience joy, inclusion, and support. This event was a perfect reflection of our mission to uplift children, encourage play, and create spaces where all children, regardless of their background, can feel safe and celebrated. With the help of our incredible partners, we were able to offer something for everyone—from thrilling raffles to cultural awareness initiatives, making this event truly one for the books.
