Our Approch

Share Your Love serves children and families through a holistic approach that focuses on social and emotional development in a community environment.

We provide life-changing programs for children and parents that make participants feel loved, supported, and empowered to improve their future.

Our educational curriculum and resources have been built on the principle that everyone— no matter where they live or what their circumstances are like— should have access to the resources needed to help their families learn, grow, and flourish.

Classes and workshops for parents include topics such as English language lessons, nurturing parenting skills workshops and vocational training. We also offer a flagship art therapy program that helps support mother’s emotional well-being through art.

After-school programs for kids are structured to include academic activities like tutoring and reading, enrichment activities like music and games, hands-on activities as well as physical exercises that support social and emotional development. We know that by developing children’s social and emotional skills, children will perform well in school, be more likely to get better jobs and break the cycle of generational trauma.

We also ensure that children who attend our program receive healthy and delicious meals.

Testimonies

“I am very grateful to God and the Share your Love Foundation represented here by this
angel called Elcileia Viana. After my accident, the memory that I have today is not the
same as what I used to have. With the foundation I have learned the values of
friendship and respect and teaching. Leia welcomed me with open arms and my new
memories are built on the gestures of love and care that I received through the family of
Share Your Love. I received the presence of our founder Deborah Guimaraes in my
home and it filled me with hope of better days to come! I can’t wait for the inauguration
of the Share Your Love home center! The crochet office is where I forget my daily
problems and I learn with the other women how to appreciate every single moment
together, even if I am not the best at crochet however what counts is the the love we put
in teaching and learning together that matters. I am grateful to Elcileia Viana, Deborah
Guimares and the Lord Jesus for bringing these wonderful women in my life.”

I am part of the Share Your Love foundation and this opportunity has been very special
to me, it has helped us a lot working in the office but even more in dealing with our kids
in their education and their upbringing. I am 65 years old and I have been part of the
foundation for 4 years already, together with my daughter. I am very grateful for all the
help that Share Your Love has offered us and how much positive change my daughter
has gained. All is very good for us and we are very grateful to Share Your Love!

Wow I’m so happy to receive the package. My mother didn’t buy the school supplies and has no money to do it. I’ll take it to school on Monday. Can you give to my cousins as well?” (our social worker said yes, he run out and got his 2 cousins to receive their packages as well).
