Social DevelopmentSince its foundation Confab Equipamentos has established deep roots in the community

in order to to provide mutual support between the industrial project and the community,

promoting development through partnerships in projects conducted by different entitiesin Pindamonhangaba.

t 5,904,800 m2is the

area occupied by the Trabiju

Municipal Natural Park, which

is the main focus of the Confab

environmental education

program in Pindamonhangaba.

Within this proposition to promote economic, social and

environmental sustainability, one of the companys mottos

is to help those who help themselves. The company

is focused on projects related to education, health and

environment that meet the following criteria: they were

created as a community initiative; they benefit a large

number of people; they promote voluntary work; they are

conducted by entities known for their competence and

transparency.

Confab also evaluates the communitys ability to maintain

the project, even if the company were no longer present. The

goal is to contribute for the projects to grow, strengthen and

become stable and independent. The projects supported by

the company benefit an average 20 thousand people every

year, directly or indirectly.

t 16,230 children and

teenagers are benefited every

year by the initiatives focused

on education, with the support

of Confab Equipamentos.

Together, the Study Excellence

Award, Leaving the Streets

and Anlia Franco Scholarship

projects make dreams come true.

Pinda Florida Project

The purpose of this initiative, established in partnershipwith Pindamonhangabas City Hall, is to increase scientific

knowledge regarding the diversity in the Trabij Municipal

Park, a 6 million m2natural reserve of the Atlantic Forest

that holds rare animal and plant species, and stimulate

environmental education. One of the projects important

actions was implementing the Pinda Verde initiative,

promoting the culture of healthy community vegetable

gardens, based on the agroecology concept.

Pinda Marathon

The marathon gathers over 6 thousand people, promoting

sports, quality of life and multicultural integration. Theevent is considered the third largest athletics course in the

State of So Paulo and the largest in the Vale do Paraba,

with participation from children, boys and girls, men and

women and the elderly. It is one of the official activities

performed to celebrate the citys anniversary.

Study Excellence Awards

The objective of this program is to highlight and award

students that present outstanding academic performance

in the municipal, state and private High Schools in

Pindamonhangaba. For this purpose, it awards up to 200

students every year. To receive the award, each student must

present average grades of 9,0 or higher, good behavior and

attendance.

Saindo das Ruas (Leaving the Streets) Project

This project aims at improving academic performance and

keeping students in schools. The participants, over 2,300

children and teenagers, are supported with reinforcement

classes and after-class help. When theyre not studying, they

are involved in several activities, such as lessons in street

dancing, aerobics, capoeira and cultural manifestations,

tin orchestras, outdoor and indoor soccer. There is also a

partnership with the local Guri Project providing regular

music classes for 300 children.

The Anlia Franco Childrens Space

The purpose of the program is to disseminate valuesand attitudes for over 400 participants, children and

teenagers, related to the principles of ethics and citizenship,

through theme projects and ludo-pedagogical workshops,

strengthening family, school and the community. To

promote integral development of its participants the project

also has a free pre-college preparatory course for teenagers

with very few financial resources. In 2009, the space

established a partnership with Cimientos Foundation, from

Argentina, and with TenarisConfab to implement a project

offering educational and financial support for 30 low-

income high school students in Pindamonhangaba.

Palacete 10 de Julho (Small Palace July 10)

This XIX century building belonged to the coffee barons of

the city and was used in the past as Pindamonhangaba City

Hall. With Confab sponsorship it being transformed into a

cultural center to provide the population with an important

research tool and to develop art and culture, as well as to

promote education for the young. The company has also

formed a partnership Agentes Histricos do Museu a Cu

Aberto (Historical Museum Agents) to grant scholarships

for young people to participate in a course of history and

restoration projects, the object of which will be the Palacete

10 de Julho.
