Centro Dia do Idoso

What Centro Dia do Idoso does

ABREC – Associação Bauruense de Apoio e Assistência ao Renal Crônico, doing business since 1983 as a private nonprofit civil society organization (OSC), is headquartered on Rua Jorge Pimentel in Bauru, São Paulo, and operates five coordinated social-assistance programs. Its original Programa de Apoio e Assistência aos Renais Crônicos supports chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients and their families with food, medicines, basic baskets, geriatric diapers, and transportation to dialysis; the Cuidando da Saúde dos Rins initiative delivers school-based kidney-disease prevention using educational comic books in partnership with Fundação Redi. The remaining three programs sit inside Brazil's SUAS (Sistema Único de Assistência Social) framework: CDI provides day-center protection for elderly persons aged 60+, SEID delivers specialized social protection for persons with disabilities and elderly individuals through home- and community-based interventions, and SCFVI runs social-cohesion services for the elderly from CRAS IX de Julho.

The operating model is delivered through three channels: a physical facility inaugurated in May 1994 with land and construction support from the Lions Club de Bauru, mobile/community outreach for SEID beneficiaries, and a co-located community-center presence at CRAS IX for SCFVI. Beneficiaries are referred primarily through four hospital partners — Hospital Estadual, Hospital de Base, Hospital Unimed, and Hospital DaVita — all based in Bauru.

ABREC generates no service fees; all program offerings are free to beneficiaries. Funding comes from four streams: Termos de Colaboração and Termos de Fomento with the Prefeitura Municipal de Bauru via SEBES for executing CDI, SEID, SCFVI, and CKD-support programs; individual monthly and one-time donations through PIX, PagSeguro, and bank transfer (CNPJ 49.884.596/0001-29); individual income-tax donations of up to 3% via the Complete IR model; and Nota Fiscal Paulista fiscal-credit designations. The organization holds OSCIP certification (since 2011) and CEBAS certification (since 2015) and operates with approximately 70 employees under a triennially elected patient-led board.
