Fundación Brincar

What Fundación Brincar does

Fundación Brincar (legal name: FUNDACIÓN BRINCAR POR UN AUTISMO FELIZ) is an Argentine non-profit foundation established in 2010 and headquartered in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with 17 employees and an additional operating presence in Córdoba and Salta. The foundation serves people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (TEA), their families, professionals, corporations, and the broader community, focusing on capabilities, interests, and motivations rather than deficits, with a long-term vision spanning adolescence through adult life.

Its core offerings include a portfolio of in-person programs—Talleres Artísticos (visual arts, music, circus, theater, dance), Taller de Recreación, Taller Pre-Laboral (cooking, bag-making), Taller de Yoga Terapéutico, and the planned Casa Brincar assisted-living housing project—alongside a remote art workshop (Arteamistancia) launched in 2013. The foundation has built a proprietary content library including the Alertas del Desarrollo screening booklet (with M-CHAT), the "Jugar tiene sentido" Denver-model play guide, the Manual de Cocina for independent living, the Manual de Conductas Disruptivas, and the 2024 Guía de Asistencia Sanitaria en Autismo for healthcare professionals. Training programs are delivered both online (formacionesbrincar.org.ar) and in-person, with a separate digital resource library (Biblioteca Brincar).

The revenue model is multi-stream and typical of an Argentine non-profit: individual donations (one-time and monthly), corporate sponsorships (HDI Seguros, Codere, Banco Hipotecario, Banco Ciudad), recurring Ley de Mecenazgo Cultural government grants administered by the City of Buenos Aires (annual awards since 2013), government support via Copidis and Ministerio de Desarrollo Social, and a mix of free and fee-based professional training. Service delivery is direct-to-consumer with a strong community-outreach marketing layer (website, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, public events at Plaza de Mayo, and participation in the Feria Internacional del Libro). Pricing is largely freemium, with workshops offered free with a voluntary non-exclusive contribution and some training programs paid.
