Two Touches Program
Caju, Rio de Janeiro
The Two Touches program offers sports, leisure, reading, writing, computer and arts workshops to children ages 6-14 and monitors ages 15-18. Sporting and community service events make up the activities. The main aim of the program is to contribute to the integral education of children, adolescents and young people through sports and social learning, involving their families and other actors, such as public schools and residents of the local communities of Caju neighborhood, in Rio de Janeiro.
In 2018, the Two Touches program established two new service centers in addition to the Gol de Letra Foundation's headquarters - at Marechal Espiridião Rosas Municipal School and at CRAS XV de Maio - further expanding the service and spreading the methodology in the area where it operates. The program also held martial arts festivals for the first time, established new methodological parameters for literacy and incorporated the Sustainable Development Goals as transversal themes.

I like to be part of FGL because I love learning and practicing sports. I also like computing classes to do researches, learn things and play games. I learned that we must help and respect our colleagues.
I like Fundação Gol de Letra very much! I talk a lot about FGL’ss work and recommend it to other parents. The assistance given is very special, my family and I are well cared for, and knowledge is shared in a very good way. It’s my second home!
I like being at Fundação Gol because it is a place with lots of things to do. It improves my mood when I am sad, I make friends and I practice all the offered sports modalities. I believe that sports are very important to exercise my body, to keep moving! I improved my writing, my sense of cooperation, I get better year after year. I am very happy here!
