Carola Matarazzo, executive director of Movimento Bem Maior, and Roberta Faria, co-founder and CEO of Editora MOL and president of Instituto MOL, author an article published in Folha de São Paulo, on November 25th, about Donation Day and the opportunity for people, companies and governments to get closer to causes and support the transformation of our society on a recurring basis.

[…] For those who are interested in supporting the transformation of society and don’t know where to start, we have a tip: try to identify causes that best match your life story.”

OKRs in the Third Sector – My experience in MBM

How can someone from the Humanities, who carries in their personality all the stereotypes of the area, also be so systematic, meticulous and regulated? That's me. And imagine my happiness when I discovered Objective and Key Results (OKRs) when I arrived at Movimento Bem Maior just over 3 years ago! A fabulous encounter. Until then, […]
