HOW WE HELPED

What was done so far with the Support of the Heartbeat Foundation from 2012:

- Multicultural Non Profit Events such as: Festival of Nations Worldcup Finals named by FIFA as one of the TOP Viewing events live on the Beach, LUAU Pompano Beach Celebrating 100 years of Samba with Paula Lima, Wynwood Park Multicultural Space, the Acoustic “Fascinating Mestizo” Concerts with Carla Visi, and the Queen of Forro “Elba Ramalho” at the Seminole Casino Coconut Creek. In 2019, IZA Brazil’s POP Phenomenon, Latin Grammy Nominee, and Judge on the TV Show “The Voice” kicks off a new album in Manhattan. In the Same Year, Biquini Cavadao, the Iconic Brazilian Rock band lands in Boston to promote Brazil’s Rock History.

- THF employed residents and locals by filing more than 589 direct part time positions in proprietary Multicultural Non Profit Events.

- Only in 2019, The Heartbeat Foundation invested U$232,000.00 (Two Hundred Thousand and nine dollars) back in the Brazilian Community by retaining services from minority owned suppliers, vendors, contractors, media outlets, workers, manufactures, artists, musicians, etc.

- In 2020 with the support of the Heartbeat Foundation, the 9th Annual Brazilian Festival was held in Fort Lauderdale, and the only LIVE Brazilian Celebration held in the entire Country, setting new standards of safety in the Industry as a Covid Safe event. More than 75 local artists, 40 Local Small business, 35 Staff Members, and 25 local suppliers affected by the Pandemic, have got financial assistance and a sense of hope and faith in happier days ahead in the Community. Click here for Pictures 

- THF has generated in 9 years, U$ 800,000.00 (eight hundred thousand dollars) in gross revenues to Food Vendors at proprietary Multicultural festivals.

- THF retains annually the services of 63 (sixty three) local minority suppliers, contractors and vendors per year.

- Multicultural exhibitors and vendors employed an average of  3700 part time workers since 2012.

- The Heartbeat Foundation donated U$40,000.00 (forty thousand dollars) in hard cash, beverages, refreshments, and food since 2012 to PIB Church Florida, Safe Harbor and Broward Schools, Pompano Chamber of Commerce, the City of Pompano Beach,   “Lar Maria Thereza” in Bahia for the Homeless, among many others.

- THF helped more than 2100 (two thousand and one hundred) local minority owned businesses with growth, sales, media exposure, and networking since 2012.

- THF has also the mission to heat up the local economy with the sole purpose of promoting tourism in South Florida (Miami and Broward) through cultural diversity.

- Through happiness, fun, and entertainment we have been creating multicultural awareness, or unity, healing, and harmony between groups regardless of race, religion, gender, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status.

SUFFERING NO MORE

Helping The Community

In 2020 - Celebrity Musicians banded Together to launch Fundraising Campaign for Struggling Brazilian Immigrants in the Arts, Events & Entertainment Industries in South Florida. In response to the economic fallout the Coronavirus Pandemic has inflicted on Brazilian immigrants living in the United States, this campaign has raised funds and helped individuals with $500 financial relief checks.
