A few years ago, some organizations took initiatives to strengthen the donation culture in the country. Research shows that a large part of the Brazilian population considers that the government is the main responsible for solving socio-environmental problems. This is a factor that would justify the low participation of people in donation programs, especially when considering the high tax burden in the country.
Seeking that citizens perceive themselves as part of the solution of social problems is a first step towards strengthening their direct participation in supporting socio-environmental projects.
The expansion of the donation culture will strengthen Brazilian civil society. The subject of donation, patronage and philanthropy in Brazil has opened up a new field in Brazil.
On the other hand, there is a strong questioning in society regarding sponsorships based on tax benefits. The Rouanet Law, in particular, has been the subject of polemic and controversies that also end up impacting the field of philanthropy.
SBSA supports initiatives that encourage the growth of the donation culture. At the same time, it provides legal support to different organizations with regard to fundraising and sponsorship, on the one hand, and the preparation and management of cultural projects financed by them.
