What drives us
Strengthening lives,
one action at a time.
Associação Renascer para Salvar (ARESA) is a legally established nonprofit organisation in Angola. We create opportunities for children, young people, women and families facing vulnerability.
Our story began with concern for community needs and a desire to turn solidarity into action. Through the Amar Community Centre, we promote education, training, health, culture and community development. We aim to go beyond providing assistance by creating opportunities for people to transform their own lives.
Serve families
Strengthen the bonds that support every community.
Serve our neighbours
Put human dignity at the heart of every action.
Serve our nation
Contribute to a fairer, more inclusive Angola.
Our mission
To save lives, restore hope and advance social and human development through education, vocational training, health, culture, social inclusion, entrepreneurship and family support. We work with communities to identify real needs and develop sustainable responses.
Our vision
To be a leading organisation in Angola and internationally through social projects that promote human dignity and create opportunities for everyone to grow, learn, work and live with hope.

What we do
Opportunities that
transform lives.
From education to health, training to social support, we work alongside people to respond to the needs of their communities.
Investing in education
is investing in the future.
A child supported. A young person trained. A lack of opportunity should never end a dream. We help children and young people learn, develop skills and find new paths forward.
