A country's dream is a collective endeavor

Our commitment to Brazil is rooted in a long-term vision, and our approach to impact investment is built to endure.

As a collaborative philanthropic organization, we engage in collective action grounded in a shared vision. Supported by donations from the Lemann family and both national and international co-investors, we dedicate ourselves to sustained commitment to Brazil through enduring partnerships and investments. By combining forces, incorporating diverse perspectives, and leveraging resources and capabilities, we aim to create a deeper, broader, and more effective impact on society.

“Rather than pursuing an individual vision for the country, we champion a more ambitious collective project, viewing philanthropy as an investment that transforms the future. To achieve this, we are broadening our international reach with the goal of promoting Brazil's best practices—both to those who give and those who receive—and absorbing lessons from successful initiatives in other regions.”

Camila Anker - Vice President of Institutional Development, Lemann Foundation

This philosophy of philanthropy is realized through an ethical, collaborative, and transparent governance framework. Our activities are directed by an Integrity Program that extends across the entire Lemann Foundation and is embraced by partner organizations. This program includes a code of conduct, specific protection policies, anti-corruption measures, and a Confidential Whistleblowing Hotline and Web Portal.
