Throughout the week, more than a hundred children from Brazil and Venezuela have soccer classes at a small school of Venezuelan coach Luis Madrid, located in Boa Vista (Roraima). On February, the training included a special visit from the technical committee of the América Fútbol Club de Minas, which donated about 150 sporting goods: T-shirts, trousers, stockings and balloons, to the children participating in the project.

The team was in Roraima to play a match in the first phase of the Copa del Brasil. Before travelling, it contacted the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) with the objective of organizing an activity in favor of the Venezuelan population living in the city. UNHCR suggested an action with Professor Madrid's team and América Mineiro prepared the donation as a surprise.
