Balanced meals per day
Through its social branch, the Mary of Nazareth Community (CMAN), the Scheilla Spiritist Group develops the Building the Good Man Project, one of its main initiatives. The project aims to transform the Mussurunga neighborhood by promoting education based on the values and virtues of Christian ethics through the universal language of Love, without proselytism.
Committed to forming conscious and socially responsible citizens, the project currently benefits 70 children and young people. It offers spaces for reflection on life's dilemmas, health education, pedagogical and psychological support, as well as musical, artistic, and kinesthetic-corporal education. Participants receive up to 150 balanced meals daily, ensuring healthy nutrition that supports their development.
The project is funded by a sponsorship program covering school supplies, hygiene items, toys, and clothing. It also relies on volunteer donations and resources raised through Florencio Anton's mediumistic painting.

This initiative is dedicated to renovating and donating houses to families in vulnerable situations, promoting dignity and self-esteem through healthy housing. It also supports renovation of Spiritist and social institutions. Thanks to Florencio Anton's mediumistic painting and donors, four renovated houses have been delivered, along with construction materials distributed to families in need.
Literacy, Music, and Professional Training Workshops
Development of reading, writing, and training during after-school hours.
Literacy workshops, held during after-school hours, aim to develop competent reading and writing, helping students interpret texts, reflect critically, and use language effectively in various contexts.
Nutritional Support Delivery during the Pandemic
Continuity of social actions during a period of restricted resources.
During the pandemic, with restricted resources from mediumistic painting, we counted on generous donors who ensured the continuity of our activities. This allowed maintenance of the physical space, payment of staff and fixed expenses, as well as distribution of food baskets, layettes, and scholarships. We are grateful to everyone who supported us, helping maintain our mission of education, autonomy, and social awareness.
