Solidarity Project
Providing emotional support and care to those in need
Who we are
OUR MISSION
Tu és uma Jóia, meaning 'you are a gem' in Portuguese, is a nonprofit organization that aids individuals at their moment of crisis. By providing emotional support with compassion and care, we are here for those experiencing emotional distress and physical fragility when they need it most.
At Tu és uma Jóia, we believe that small actions done in solidarity and kindness have a positive impact on the wellbeing of others. We provide tailored support to individuals of working age, helping them cope with challenges and rebuild their confidence and self-worth.
