A Christian organization created in 2008 by Pastor Marinaldo Muniz da Silva, who was moved by the situation of a mother who needed to leave her children alone at home to go to work. He decided to establish the institution, which now serves around 500 children. They are a social branch of the Church Living in Grace. Despite being an institution that follows the principles of the evangelical church, it is a secular space where everyone, regardless of their faith, can participate.
With the support of 12 employees under the CLT regime, eight regular volunteers who assist us in the daycare, and five volunteers who help us in Gaditas do Tatame.

Living in Grace Daycare: We provide psychological and pedagogical support to the 84 students in the community. The daycare offers four meals a day: breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack, and dinner on a full-time schedule from 8 am to 5 pm. It is aimed at children aged 1 to 5 years and 11 months.

Gaditas do Tatame: Geared towards children and youth aged 7 to 25, we conduct Muay Thai and Jiu-Jitsu activities with the support of the Sports Department. 200 children from the community are served free of charge from Monday to Thursday, from 9 am to 11 am and from 2 pm to 4 pm, operating during the school day off. To participate in the project, children need to be enrolled in school, and the institution provides monitoring for verification.

Make a Child Happy: An action conducted at the end of the year, where toys, clothes, and shoes are collected. 1500 children are registered, and the information is made available to people who wish to participate, allowing them to become sponsors and purchase gifts for the children. The items are later delivered by the institution at a large festive event.

Natal Direito de Todos: We collect food, assemble baskets, and distribute them to families in the community, impacting the beneficiaries and contributing to the local economy.
