We provide transformative education for children and teenagers who attend public schools in the Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil.
We recognize the crucial role that schools play in the formation of tomorrow's citizens. Therefore, public schools are our first partners in promoting access to sports and culture in a systematic way. At the same time, we promote socio-emotional development activities for students and follow-up with the families in regard to the progress of their children. We believe in a multi-disciplinary approach, so that each child or teenager served by Fortini can fulfill their full potential.
To be a reference in the realization of socio-educational projects in the Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte, by 2026. Will you join us?
For us, the hexagon is a symbol representing the centrality of network action in our work method. From the beginning, we have planned our actions by establishing partnerships; all projects are planned and executed with the involvement of multiple actors. Fortini exists as a catalyst for the potential action of all the actors around us, in a joint, complementary, and multiplying work.

"Fortini has been a partner in the emotional and cognitive development of students, changing the way students behave. They are more focused and aware of the responsibility they have to improve their future. "
"Fortini is very important in Cristiellen's life because it contributes a lot to her academic performance and her health and, as a result, she has become more responsible; Today she is a happier child!! Fortini provides full support in her life with psychological and pedagogical support and other assistance for her difficulties. Fortini monitors her quality of life so that in the future she can be an athlete and a person on track in life. I thank Fortini for supporting Cristiellen on her journey in life. "
"Fortini provides access to sports considered noble and that would not be within the reach of low-income students if it did not exist. The activities develop the self-esteem of the children influencing their learning growth. "
"I don't stop believing that there are people who are thirsty for affection and with a simple gesture we can make a difference in someone's life, Fortini has a social and above all Human vision, and I feel privileged every day, for the trust that has been deposited in me, along this journey of many battles yes, but also of many victories. I believe that with the commitment demonstrated by the people who are at the forefront of this project, great things are still to come, I hope to be always available to help, because I know that small gestures can make a big difference in someone's life...
