Fundação Abrigo do Bom Jesus

What Fundação Abrigo do Bom Jesus does

Fundação Abrigo do Bom Jesus is a non-profit philanthropic foundation established in 1940 in Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, Brazil, operating as an Instituição de Longa Permanência para Idosos (ILPI). It delivers 24-hour institutional shelter, nutrition, multidisciplinary healthcare (nursing, psychology, physiotherapy, social work), and sociocultural programming for elderly people in situations of family abandonment, neglect, or social vulnerability. The foundation currently houses approximately 101 residents against a physical capacity of about 140, with active renovation underway to scale to 130.

The revenue model is hybrid and donation-dependent: a municipal convênio with the Prefeitura de Cuiabá provides approximately R$1,300 per resident per month (well below the stated R$5,200/month true cost per resident), supplemented by corporate donations, individual contributions via PagSeguro and direct deposits, parliamentary emendas (e.g., R$80,000 for Projeto Conviver), and volunteer-driven fundraising events. Government and institutional partners include the Secretaria Municipal de Assistência Social (referrals and waiting list management), UFMT, Univag, SENAC, IPDH, FIEMT, SESI, AMO, and CRIDAC.

The organization is governed by a 19-member volunteer Deliberative Council led by President Márcia Antônia Ferreira, with operational direction staffed by approximately 50 employees (per primary source) or up to ~90 professionals (per secondary source). Programmatic differentiators include Projeto Conviver (painting, clay modeling, equotherapy, hydrotherapy, cultural outings) and the Cuidar é Amar healthcare campaign. Distribution is single-site (Cuiabá), referral-driven via the municipal social-assistance system, with no proprietary technology platform.
