This Wednesday, the CAB and BPI give hands to help the children of the School of São Paulo smile. Continuing a partnership that already goes to its third year of existence, the Club-Family and the banking institution will organize, in the CAB Pavilion, a Christmas gathering that will give children with less possibilities the opportunity to spend a different morning and in the company of the male team of Friends of the Basketball. The conviviality will begin with a guided tour of the CAB Pavilion, guided by João Pedro Vieira, coach of the women's team, who will share with the children some information about the club's history, its sports and social mission, the work that he does for the training of children and young people and also some curiosity about the beautiful 35-year-old tour of the club of Nazareth. The children will then participate in play activities in the basketball field that will be guided by João Paulo Silva, coach of the male team, and in which the entire CAB professional team will take part. It will undoubtedly be a highlight and at which the children of the School of São Paulo will feel what it is to play basketball with the 'stars' of the CAB, which, as is their custom, will do everything to welcome them. After basketball, it will be time for gift distribution, with each of the visiting children receiving a Christmas gift from BPI, as the tradition of the time dictates. Once again, the banking institution opens its arms to a solidarity cause, and this time it will fill the eyes and heart with happiness to many boys and girls. In conclusion, the CAB Parents Club will offer a snack in which there will be no shortage of sandwiches, cookies, juices, cakes, sweets and other surprises. After a morning of activities, it will be time to satisfy the appetite, even in time to then go back to school and say 'See you next year!'. For Francisco Gomes, president of the CAB, "For me, this party, which we have been having for some years, is one of the highest points in our social calendar, because it allows us to see the faces of dozens of children, who often have no reason to smile, fill themselves with light. There are few words that can describe the happiness of a child who feels cherished, and when we see it with our own eyes, we finally realize what the true meaning of Christmas is." According to the leader of Friends, "This is an activity that we will continue to carry out, because it is a commitment that we make to children who deserve that kind of delivery from us. These days, the CAB is more than basketball. The CAB is also dedicated to social causes and this is one that we keep and that we will keep close to our heart."
