The event was attended by Santos FC administrative manager Luiz Fernando Vella, Cubatão mayor César Nascimento, students from the municipal school system, the Eternal Idols, organized supporter groups, Scouts of Brazil, Santos FC youth academy athletes, and the mascot Leo.
“Cubatão will be an important partner of Instituto Leão do Mar. The city develops several social and environmental projects that are highly aligned with the Institute’s goals of sustainability and care for people. Our participation today on the catamaran is just the first of many actions we will carry out together,” commented Luiz Fernando Vella, Santos FC administrative manager.
The mayor of Cubatão praised the partnership and the institutions’ concern for the environment. “Instituto Leão do Mar shows the greatness of this giant Club in its sense of responsibility and engagement with an issue that is very sensitive today. It is important to prepare our young people today to have this concern and this environmental sustainability in the future. I believe that forming this partnership with Santos FC, using its power to engage and its reach, is extremely important and will bring enormous benefits to the Baixada as a whole.”
Sponsored by Usiminas and operated by Instituto Meu Oceano, the catamaran tour is sustainable, powered by solar energy, and dedicated to providing an experience of connection with nature for the local community.
“We look at this initiative and understand how essential it is. The tour works on the pillars of education, sustainability, and development, which are essential for the future. In this way, we can see children, young people, and adults getting to know and learning to value Cubatão’s environmental heritage. So for us, it is a source of pride to be part of Instituto Leão do Mar in a project that brings together everything we seek to promote,” added Patrícia Limeres, executive producer at Instituto Usiminas, the company’s social arm.
