The 2025 Back to School campaign, organized by the Silves-based family charity Castelo de Sonhos, raised sufficient funds to purchase and distribute 65 filled backpacks to disadvantaged children within the Silves municipality this year.  

On Thursday, 16 October 2025, the Algarve will come together in style for the annual Shine Bright Algarve Fundraiser, hosted at the iconic Thai Beach Club, Vilamoura by the Women of Loule Facebook group.

The Disco Party season, hosted by Vinyl Boutique Records DJ Brian Rockindad and BAFO DE BACO Club, will begin on September 20th. It will be a charity event, raising money for the "Os Miúdos" Shelter in Loulé.

On Monday 1st September, StreetLife marked its 8th anniversary in style with the return of its much-loved Dine & Party Night, once again hosted at Restaurante António in Moncarapacho, who – as always – did a superb job.

When the wife of RCEPI member Raymond Parfait suggested supporting our brave firefighters, he immediately thought of involving their friends and fellow Rotarians to strengthen the solidarity effort.

A new online platform, Volunteering Portugal, will officially launch this September, providing a central hub for charities and community organizations to connect with individuals seeking volunteer opportunities.

With a glass of fizz in hand, poolside music and paella on every plate, guests at StreetLife’s Street Fashion fundraiser were treated to lovely canapes, a delicious seafood paella from Chef Jose Cancela and decadent desserts.  

The Silves based family charity Castelo de Sonhos have just started their annual Back to School project.  We have just a few weeks to get everything together for distribution of the filled backpacks, before the kids return to school in September. Please help us if you can.
