The Charity Recital "Victoires" was held in Paris at the "Cathédrale Saint-Louis des Invalides", on Sunday, 13 March 2005.

This concert was performed by "Jubilate Concert de Versailles" for the benefit of "Casa do Menor", the brazilian Association founded by Father Chiera, whose ambition it is to help the street children.

The funds collected were earmarked for the "Qualificar se faz preciso" programme, to offer children and teenagers a professional training, and give them the chance to get a first job. That way, in 2005, more than 240 young Brazilians could assist to hairdressing, manicure or computing lessons, what turned into a job for more than 50 of them.

Casa do Menor has implemented a large number of humanitarian aid programs with the aim to assist children and young people of the brazilian deprived suburban and rural areas.
In 2002, AMADE funded the building of two rehabilitation centers for street drug-addicted youngsters in Teresopolis and Tingua.
