BUILDING HOPE
ONE BRICK AT A TIME
THE WALL IS NOW
A REALITY
The 4 de Março School now has a wall that protects hundreds of children, providing a safe space in which to learn and grow. Each brick represents a gesture of solidarity and commitment, and together we have built more than a wall: we have built a shared dream.
To everyone who took part, your support has been essential. Every contribution, every brick and every personalised message has left its mark. Thank you for believing in this project and in the power of solidarity.
WE WILL CONTINUE WITH NEW INITIATIVES
The wall is now complete, but our commitment does not end here..

TRANSFORMING LIVES ONE BY ONE
At Kaleido, we believe in the power of education to change lives. Since 2003, we have worked alongside the local community, establishing a deep bond that inspired us to build a school in Namibe, southern Angola.
This educational centre, created in collaboration with the Congregation of the Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, already provides a dignified learning space for 600 children. More than a building, it is a place where children can grow, dream and build a better future.
At Kaleido, we remain committed to supporting local development, building cultural bridges and making a positive difference in our host communities.
‘BUILDING A FUTURE TOGETHER, BRICK BY BRICK’.

THE ORIGIN OF THIS
DREAM OF SOLIDARITY
2021
SCHOOL PROJECT
KALEIDO ANGOLA
In 2021, we consolidated our social commitment in Angola with the construction of a school in Namibe, as part of its effort to give back to local communities.
This project, driven by the local Kaleido Angola team, marked the start of several initiatives to support children.
The school is run by the Sisters of Charity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. From start to finish, Kaleido took care of the collection of school materials, clothes and other necessities until they were handed over to the local team of the Sisters of the Congregation.
2022
INAUGURATION
ANGOLA SCHOOL
In 2022 we opened the new school in southern Angola. This school opened its doors for more than 600 children aged 5 to 13, who finally have a suitable space to receive a quality education. The collaboration with the Sisters of Charity, with their extensive experience in education and strong presence in the country, has been essential to ensure the success of the project.
In addition, we continue to support the community with campaigns to provide school materials and necessary resources. As part of our commitment, we celebrated the International Day of the African Child by organising a snack for the local children, a small gesture that brought many smiles.
2023
CHARITY
COLLECTION CAMPAIGNS
In 2023, we activated several solidarity collection campaigns with the aim of continuing to support the Namibe school in Angola. At the end of the year, we received all the school supplies that colleagues and suppliers helped us to collect.
In addition, we launched a second collection campaign, taking advantage of the change of season and the closure of schools. We set up boxes in each of our centres to collect clothes, shoes and school supplies.
Thanks to such generosity, we managed to exceed all expectations and send a crucial shipment for the school children.
2024
SOLIDARITY CHRISTMAS, FOOTBALL SCHOOL
AND ALBINO COLLECTIVE SUPPORT
In 2024, in addition to our usual solidarity initiatives, a proposal was put forward by the school’s teachers: to create a Football School in Angola. Over several weekends, a league was organised in which the school’s pupils were able to participate, thanks to the contributions of sports equipment from our colleagues at Kaleido.
In addition, as part of the social programme, we launched an action to support the Albino collective in Namibe, which faces a double struggle: social exclusion and serious health problems. This was only the beginning of our collaboration, as we are looking for alliances with pharmaceutical and optical companies to improve their quality of life.
2025
WALL PROJECT
ANGOLA SCHOOL
What next? In 2025, we look to the future with the firm conviction that there is still much to do.
The ‘One Brick Solidarity’ campaign is just the beginning of a road full of projects and solidarity actions that will continue to transform lives in Angola.
We know that the work does not end with the construction of a school or the delivery of materials; rather, these are the first steps to generate a lasting impact in the community.
2026
LOOKING TO
THE FUTURE
What next? In 2026, we look to the future with the firm conviction that there is still much to be done.
We remain committed to actions and solidarity projects that transform lives in Angola and continue to create a lasting, positive impact within the community.
DO YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS?
What is the solidarity brick?
A solidarity brick represents your direct contribution to the construction of the wall that will protect the school in Angola. It is a tangible way to participate in this solidarity project.
How will the funds raised be used?
All funds will be used exclusively for the purchase of materials, the construction of the wall and other needs related to the project, guaranteeing total transparency in their use.
Will I receive a donation certificate?
Yes, you will receive a personalised certificate as a thank you for your contribution.
Are donations tax deductible?
Yes, you can deduct your donation from your tax return. We will provide you with a tax certificate so that you can benefit from the corresponding deductions.
IF YOU ARE A NATURAL PERSON
From May 2020 the tax advantages for donations from private individuals are greater. The tax deduction for tax returns is now 80% for the first €150 donated. In other words, if you donate €150, you get €120 back on your tax return. From €150 onwards, the amount exceeding this amount is tax deductible at 35%. The deduction is in the ‘cuota íntegra’, with a limit of 10% of your ‘base liquidable’.
IF YOU ARE A COMPANY
As a company, you can deduct 35% of your full contributions and/or donations from your ‘gross taxable income’ for corporation tax purposes, up to a limit of 10% of the ‘net taxable income’.
Do you have any questions or would you like to collaborate with us?
We are happy to listen to your ideas and answer your questions. If you would like more information about this initiative or have proposals for collaboration, please do not hesitate to write to us.
Together we can build more than a wall: a future full of opportunity for these children.
