Nós do Morro brings the community together, allowing the people to release their minds of the fear and stress of the daily struggle to survive, while giving children, youth, and all adults a safe and fun place to learn new skills, and express their individuality through creative performance.
Many young people learned to read and write through participating in Guti’s performance arts programs. Dozens of participants leveraged the training to develop career paths in the arts and entertainment industry.

OUR TEAMWORK
Rise Up & Care provided six total grants to Guti Fraga to support various local variety show performance seasons in Vidigal.
Life is only worth living if it is reinvented. Rise Up & Care’s support has been critical for the artistic resistance and the creation of reinvented artistic and cultural performance in the favela of Vidigal.
