About Us

WHO WE ARE

We are the Mandaver Institute, a non-profit Civil Society Organization (OSC), which works to promote citizenship through social assistance and entrepreneurship actions. Our lines of action towards the community are workshops on culture, sport and professional qualification, thus being a driver of income generation for several families. Thus, acting significantly in the social transformation of the neighborhood of Vergel do Lago, located in the city of Maceió, state of Alagoas.


The Mandaver Institute was born in 2015, through the dream of transforming the reality of the Vergel do Lago neighborhood and the lives of its residents. It was on the banks of Lagoa Mundaú, known for the extraction of sururu, which is the cultural heritage of Alagoas, that the Institute was created. This was idealized by social leader Carlos Jorge, who was already carrying out community work in the area and had the dream of changing the socio-geographic reality of the region, making Vergel one of the most innovative and entrepreneurial places in the state.
