The Andres Kasper Institute
The Andres Kasper Institute is a registered non-profit organization with presence in Brazil and the United States. Its primary focus is to provide education and social services to underprivileged and socially vulnerable children.
Founded by journalist Julinda Kasper, the Institute oversees a variety of initiatives from its headquarters in Campina Grande do Sul, in the State of Paraná, Brazil. The institute is not affiliated with any state entity or political party. Its programs are made possible through contributions of money, goods and services from individual sponsors, independent businesses, and government agencies.
Every contribution goes directly toward providing children with the opportunities they deserve.
The Andres Kasper School
The Andres Kasper School is one of the Institute’s most exciting endeavors. By providing a comfortable facility for high-quality education to underprivileged children, the school empowers them to grow ethically, morally, and socially, fulfill their roles in society, and enjoy a better quality of life.
With 80 children currently attending, we are making a visible –and lasting – positive impact on our community and the people with whom we share it.
To serve the needs of children and families in our community; to help them achieve personal fulfillment and financial growth, and to improve their quality of life
