Fogo Na Roupa Grupo Carnavalesco is a renowned Brazilian Carnaval dance and percussion group and performing company founded by the late Mestre Carlos Aceituno. Fogo, formed in 1989, continues as an amazing institution that from inception recognized the importance of youth. Our Sparks of Fogo Youth Program, celebrating it's 10th year, provides Afro-Brazilian dance and drum classes to Oakland and San Francisco youth at Melrose Leadership Academy. The program culminates with some 50 youth performing with the award-winning Fogo Na Roupa contingent in San Francisco’s Carnaval Parade and stage show.
Fogo Na Roupa is proud to ignite its 2016 Carnaval season, bringing together approximately 200 carnavalescos from the Bay Area.
This year we encourage YOU to CONTRIBUTE a donation to our 2016 Contingent.
Goal: Raise $5,000 in funds to cover the general costs of participating in San Francisco's Annual Carnaval Parade and offer Oakland and San Francisco youth FREE Carnaval programming and costumes.
Impact: Fogo Na Roupa's programming is structured to develop confidence, discipline, and cultural consciousness youth and adults alike through teachings of folklore, creative expression, and the origins of rhythms and dances. Our program has the impact of not only teaching an art, but fostering a strong sense of self and community.
Donations: With fiscal sponsorship from partnering non-profit Youth Matters, Inc., a Bay Area non-profit organization for youth development, any donations made to Fogo na Roupa will be tax deductible.
