Through Banho do Bem, people experiencing homelessness receive warm showers, clean clothes, haircuts and shaves inside a specially adapted bus parked at the Plano Piloto Bus Station. The initiative provides a welcoming environment where people can access personal care while being treated with dignity and respect.

The wider service activities also provide essential items such as clothing, blankets, shoes, toys and personal hygiene products, responding to practical needs within vulnerable communities.

Through the Feed the World initiative, volunteers provide food assistance to people experiencing homelessness and communities in need. Regular evening food distributions take place in Rio de Janeiro and Niterói, with freshly prepared meals provided alongside essential items such as bottled water, clothing, blankets, shoes, toys and personal hygiene products.

In Recife, Casa Sai Amor Infinito provides ongoing meal support to people in need. In Fortaleza, Ceará, basic food baskets are also provided to families of children participating in Education in Human Values, helping support stability and wellbeing at home.

Through Comida do Bem, warm, freshly prepared meals are also distributed to people waiting for Banho do Bem services, ensuring that food and personal care are provided together.

Education in Human Values (EHV) forms a core part of the Mission's activities in Brazil, helping children and communities develop positive human values, character and conscience through education and practical learning.
