From 2022 to 2025, RBR supported Instituto Ambikira, which has almost 20 years of history and is dedicated to identifying, supporting, and empowering different initiatives that have the capacity and purpose to transform parts of the structural imbalances of our country.

There are three main pillars of action that align with RBR’s objectives regarding social investment: Education, Social Assistance, and Training & Management.

Since its foundation in 2003, the Institute has supported more than 200 organizations, benefiting over 700,000 people. We believe the Institute, through its professional and structured approach to the organizations it supports annually, provides valuable learnings not only in financial terms but also in intangible aspects such as efficiency, an important network of partners and relationships, among others.

In 2024 and 2025, RBR supported Todos Pela Educação, which is an advocacy organization that has been working since 2006 with civil society actors and government authorities to contribute to Education in Brazil.

Independent from government entities or political parties, the Todos Pela Educação community works strategically to foster debate on education issues in Brazil. Its efforts include producing public policy proposals, conducting studies, and monitoring such initiatives, while actively engaging with public authorities and key stakeholders — including community leaders, experts, students, and teachers.

The organization also launched the “Educação Já!” initiative, which seeks to bring together multiple entities around efforts related to the reform of secondary education and the development of early childhood policies.

RBR Asset has been a signatory of the 11% Commitment since 2024.

The 1% Commitment is an important initiative to increase corporate participation in reducing inequalities and addressing socio-environmental challenges in Brazil.

Companies of different sizes and sectors can participate, as long as they already carry out or commit to allocate 1% of their annual net income to civil society organizations, movements, or collectives that promote causes of public interest.

In 2024 and 2025, RBR supported Fundação Estudar, which was created in 1991 by entrepreneurs Jorge Paulo Lemman, Marcelo Telles, and Beto Sucupira, with the aim of granting scholarships to high-potential young people.

Since then, the Foundation has launched specific programs to support the educational journey and development of young people, such as the “Prep Estudar Fora” Program, created in 2011 to help Brazilian high school students gain access to undergraduate programs abroad by providing guidance and support throughout the university application process.

In addition to this program, the Foundation offers several other initiatives focused on the development of young people and leadership, building a vast community of leaders impacted by the Foundation.

Instituto Rizomas was founded in 2017, at Base Colaborativa, with the purpose of developing the socio-emotional skills of children and adolescents from the Portelinha community, in the Capão Redondo region.

Currently, the Institute provides after-school support so that students can continue learning Portuguese (including literacy), mathematics, and English, while also engaging in socio-emotional activities. In addition, the organization carries out weekend initiatives together with volunteers and the community.

From 2022 to 2025, RBR supported Colégio Mão Amiga, a Civil Society Organization (CSO) that stands out for being a philanthropic school (with the Certification of Charitable Social Assistance Entities – CEBAS/Education) that guarantees quality formal education to 660 low-income children and adolescents, from early childhood education to high school. The school is located in the Jardim Santa Júlia neighborhood, on the outskirts of the city of Itapecerica da Serra, 1 km from the border with the municipality of São Paulo.

It is a region of high social vulnerability, with limited job opportunities and a predominance of informal labor, drug trafficking, and violence. In addition to providing quality formal education and positively impacting the families of the children throughout their entire schooling (from elementary through high school), Colégio Mão Amiga also serves as a support center during after-school hours and on weekends, offering socio-emotional activities to the community.

RBR is one of the main supporters of Instituto Sol, a non-profit organization that identifies outstanding young students from the ninth grade of public schools and provides them with access and inclusion in a transformative educational journey, from high school through university and into their first year in the job market.

In a pioneering initiative, since December 2019, RBR has donated 1% of the management fee received from one of its funds RBR Properties, which currently has net assets of over BRL 1 billion, to the institute. As this fund has no maturity date and is not redeemable, the donation is perpetual,ensuring excellent predictability for the institute to invest in its mission.

This amount comes from the fee paid to the manager and has no impact on shareholders. In addition, in 2021, RBR allocated the equivalent of 0.5% of its net income to Instituto Sol.
