Founded on March 9, 1985, based on an idea from SACA (Sociedade Amiga de Caucaia do Alto), in which Dr. Paul Gottfried Ledergerber (president of the institution) participated, the Philanthropic Association “Criança Feliz” presents itself as a non-profit Civil Society Organization, and today it maintains programs to strengthen ties.

Formed by the Youth Center, the Guaçatom musical group, IT and manual arts classes, the association aims to cooperate in the development of local children and teenagers.
