ZeroDois Pela Educação is a movement uniting founders and venture capital investors committed to transforming Brazil’s public education. The initiative seeks to unlock a fundamental lever for national development by connecting private capital with high-impact educational projects.
In Brazil, nearly 38 million students attend public schools, yet fewer than 5% finish high school with adequate math and Portuguese skills. Donor-members-founders and investors, pledge at least 0.2% of their earnings or carry to advance programs that expand learning, innovation, and opportunity.
Each donation is directed through a rigorous curation process, conducted in partnership with the Lemann Foundation, ensuring that resources fund evidence-based solutions such as early literacy, teacher and leadership training, digital inclusion, and education policy advocacy.
ZeroDois cultivates a community of entrepreneurs and experts dedicated to transforming public education, offering access to data, learning experiences, and site visits that deepen understanding and accelerate systemic impact.
Donations support:
- Early literacy and numeracy programs that build strong learning foundations.
- Teacher and school leader development focused on pedagogy and management.
- Innovative education technologies that expand access and quality.
- Public policy advocacy promoting effective, scalable education reform.
“There is no lack of talent in Brazil, only of opportunity. Supporting ZeroDois means building the ground where the future will walk.” - Luiz Guilherme Manzano, one of ZeroDois’ supporters.
Help unlock Brazil’s full potential by investing in the power of public education. Make a donation today to ZeroDois through The Resource Foundation. All contributions are tax-deductible in the U.S.
