Pillars of Sustainability social programs ANJOS DE LUZ CHOIR Created in 2004, Anjos de Luz Choir is a project carried out in the commu- nity of Tijucas and has included more than 300 children and teenagers aged 6 to 13. It is an initiative that brings the beauty and transforming power of music to different generations. The re- lationships cultivated since childhood are extremely valuable to Portobello, especially because many of those chil- dren are the sons and daughters of our company's employees. Currently, the choir has 35 members who perform at public events, festivals, gatherings and shows, also alongside other musical acts. The choir did not gather in 2020 to prevent the spread of Covid-19. VOLUNTEER PROGRAM The Volunteer Program serves as the basis to maintain and get people incre- asingly involved in the numerous social programs of Portobello is the Volunte- er Program. Participating in it currently are over 200 employees. The program, which has encouraged involvement in social actions since 2017, is intended to contribute to improving quality of life of the community at large. To this end, the initiative is currently or- ganized into four different areas which volunteers are free to chose from based on their availability and interests: Volunteer actions, in which employe- es can help with the organization of the company's events, such as the Workers' Day Party, the Children's Party, and of events held by the municipal ad- ministration of Tijucas. Charitable campaigns, focused on collecting donations for the Volunteer Christmas Celebration, Clothing Dona- tion Campaign, visiting hospitals, nur- sing homes, daycare centers and scho- ols. Charitable donations, in which volun- teers provide assistance to employees experiencing hardship due to a disease or natural disaster.
