In all my travels, this was one of the best experiences I have ever had. Fatima is an incredible person, with whom we were able to build a friendship based on respect, affection, and work. I learned a lot about environmental management and resilience. I greatly admire Fatima's energy and the motivation and love she dedicates to her work. I had amazing experiences and met wonderful people. The house in Fatima where you will stay is very clean, organized and has a calm energy. It was very hard to leave because I found there the coziness 😅 Gratitude and admiration for this project.

Dona Fátima is an amazing person! It was an honor to participate in this project! I connected with the land, attended capoeira classes, and taught Carimbó to the children! It was incredible!

That was my first volunteering experience and I couldn't have chosen better. Dona Fatima is a wonderful person, very welcoming, friendly and flexible with regard to the activities. The space of the project is beautiful, and it's incredible to think of everything that has been done there. I could have great experiences and memories that I would never trade, and I will certainly return for another opportunity in the future.

My volunteer experience at the project was very positive and enriching. The host Maria de Fátima is very communicative and careful with the space, which is well organized and cared for. I learned a lot about the Caatinga, its trees and the importance of sustainability. The schedules are flexible and the activities are easy to carry out. Taking care of the plants was one of the tasks that I enjoyed the most, as it made me feel more connected with nature. Overall, it was a rewarding experience that contributed to my personal growth and to my environmental awareness.

Maria Preta is the greatest! I really liked the project, it's an amazing thing, I left with a heart full, full of joy and wonderful memories. Grateful to everyone from Arapiraca, the family of Doña Fatima, the capoeira groups and the schools.

It was an excellent experience. Mrs. Fátima conveys a great deal of knowledge about the environment, making it possible to gain a solid understanding. In addition, it is admirable to see her fight for the environmental protection area covered by the project. Since I went during school holidays, I didn't have the opportunity to welcome the children to the project, but I could assist Mrs. Fátima with the environmental care of the area. We also did some activities with the neighborhood children right on Mrs. Fátima's street. As for the accommodations, I was also very well received by Mrs. Fátima, so everything was great.

The experience was excellent!!! Dona Fátima is an enlightened human being!!! The project consists of getting to know and helping in the environmental protection area that Dona Fátima cares for, because the government left it abandoned. My role was to make videos for social media. Dona Fátima's daughter was friendly and provided me with all the material I needed for the realization. Fátima welcomed us very well in her house! Dona Fátima is a sweet person! I hope to be able to meet her again.

The project is beautiful and extremely necessary, however the host is very explosive when speaking, does not know how to talk, treats us as employees and does not compensate for the hours of the domestic tasks and for the project. They act as if we already knew the routine and the house rules. I would only recommend it if you are not the only volunteer at the moment.
