be a volunteer at Institute C

Be part of an incredible story!

We believe that civil society’s engagement in social causes can transform the reality we live in, reducing the gaps and inequalities we face. That’s why volunteer work is one of Instituto C’s core values and a fundamental part of our mission.

We are guided by the Brazilian Volunteer Law (Law No. 9.608/1998) and seek multipliers of solidarity actions who believe, like us, that together we can build a more equal society.

We invite you to be part of this journey!
