The Pequeno Pr\u00edncipe Complex has just launched its endowment fund, <\/em>the Futurin \u2013 Funds for Life, which was created with an initial investment of US$ 600,000, part of which was raised from external investors. The fund\u2019s goal is to raise US$ 5 million by 2030, consolidating an independent and solid financial model that guarantees the perpetuation of the institution\u2019s mission, sustainability and longevity of the philanthropic organization that brings together the Pequeno Pr\u00edncipe Hospital, the Pel\u00e9 Pequeno Pr\u00edncipe Research Institute and the Pequeno Pr\u00edncipe College, forming a virtuous circle between health assistance, teaching and research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Futurin was established with a robust governance model, consisting of a board of directors formed by independent members, including the presidency. The structure includes an investment committee, responsible for making decisions on financial investments, a philanthropic advisory committee, which is responsible for carrying out mobilization and networking actions, and an audit committee, which will be responsible for financial balance. Administrative management and compliance with the bylaws are the responsibility of the Executive Board, headed by C\u00e1ssia Morghett.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prominent figures in the corporate and philanthropic scene, such as Jos\u00e9 Luiz Egydio Set\u00fabal (from Jos\u00e9 Luiz Egydio Set\u00fabal Foundation) and Sylvia Brasil Coutinho (UBS Group AG), have already confirmed their participation in the board of directors. Juliana de Paula (BTGPactual), Daniele Giacomazzi Behring and Amalia Spinardi Thompson Motta will be on the Philanthropic Committee. Futurin will be managed by UBS Bank on a pro bono basis until it reaches the first US$ 2 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am now part of the Pequeno Pr\u00edncipe team. I was very pleased to receive this invitation and I believe that the fund will be an important step forward for the institution\u2019s sustainability. I hope to be able to contribute with my experience so that this fund can grow as quickly as possible,\u201d said Jos\u00e9 Luiz Egydio Set\u00fabal at the Futurin launch event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BTG Pactual\u2019s director of Social Responsibility, Juliana de Paula, said she believes in Pequeno Pr\u00edncipe\u2019s ability to influence the mindset of many supporters of healthcare endowments, since there are few endowment funds in this area in Brazil. \u201cToday, I am in a philanthropic position at a large bank and I feel that I can help by building bridges between the Hospital and individuals and companies that want to support healthcare. The launch of Futurin is a demonstration that Pequeno Pr\u00edncipe is looking ahead, a true legacy-oriented approach,\u201d she emphasized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainable future for health and research<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well-established in countries such as the United States, endowmentshave been spreading in Brazil over the last ten years, mainly linked to educational activities. \u201cFuturin represents a new chapter for children and adolescent health in the country. We want to create a legacy that ensures the quality of pediatric care, the advancement of scientific research and the training of specialized professionals in Brazil,\u201d highlighted Ety Cristina Forte Carneiro, executive director of Pequeno Pr\u00edncipe Hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Futurin is a response to the underfunding of the SUS and the growing investment in research, factors that have challenged the sustainability of Pequeno Pr\u00edncipe. It represents a strategic solution to reduce dependence on public resources, that no longer fully cover the costs of services provided to the community, especially via the Brazilian Public Health System (known as SUS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hospital serves 60% of its patients through SUS. For every US$ 20 invested in care, only US$ 11.38 is transferred, resulting in a gap of 43%. In 2023, it recorded a deficit of over US$ 14 million, without considering the resources raised, signaling the urgency of a financial mechanism that would allow greater stability. Research activities, on the other hand, are fully funded with resources raised in public notices or through private social investment initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fund\u2019s resources will be addressed to the areas of activity of the Pequeno Pr\u00edncipe Complex, with 45% for health assistance actions, 35% for teaching and research, and 20% for one health initiatives, a concept that encompasses a multissetorial and transdisciplinary approach integrating the health of people, animals and ecosystems.<\/p>\n\n\n
