This Sunday, the 24th, Arena MRV turned into a true stage of solidarity. Registration is now officially open for GNV Instituto Galo, an initiative in partnership with Atlético and Galo na Veia. The day was marked by emotion, welcoming, and strong participation from the Massa, establishing the project as a success. Conceived with significant participation from members of the Club of 113, GNV Instituto Galo aims to benefit Atlético supporters in situations of social vulnerability.
“Atlético today is a monstrous team. Today it is a team that embraces its fans, takes care of its fans, offers healthcare, offers English courses, computer courses,” said Peterson Gontijo, member of the Club of 113. “One thing that bothered us was seeing the true Atlético supporter, the supporter from the Geral, pushed away, precisely now that we have a home and he could be with us. And we got the support of the SAF, which is essential to reach the true owner of Galo, which is its fans,” said José Henrique Cançado, member of the Club of 113.
The GNV Instituto Galo registration event was marked by organization, hospitality, and a lot of emotion at Arena MRV. The service structure for the public included a screening model, ensuring that the entire process took place in an easy and quick way for participants.
The first stage was carried out by the Galo na Veia team, responsible for checking the supporters’ history in the program. Next, participants went through monthly income verification and, finally, proceeded to the ticket office, where registration was officially completed.
“Today we are here at Arena MRV, registering people interested in being part of GNV Instituto Galo,” said Maria Alice Coelho, president of Instituto Galo.
After completing the process, participants were able to enroll in courses offered by the project, including English classes provided by American English, vocational training courses, available both in person and online, offered by Microlins. In addition, software courses were offered by the company 90 TI.
“We are bringing back the supporter who, for more than 3 years, has not come to the stadium. Galo is one, so the interests are shared and everything is for the good of the Club, the team, and the fans,” said Sérgio Coelho, president of Atlético.
During the event, attendees also had access to blood pressure checks, reinforcing Instituto Galo’s commitment to care and the well-being of the population. By joining the plan, beneficiaries will also eventually have access to elective medical consultations at the Instituto Galo Clinic, which will have its headquarters inside Arena MRV.
“Bringing the people back, because Atlético is the people’s team. We no longer have the same conditions to be able to go to the stadium as we did in the past. But now, with this initiative from Instituto Galo and Atlético, I believe it will bring the fans much closer,” said Alisson, a GNV Instituto Galo member.
As a form of celebration, the first 113 people to register received an official Instituto Galo shirt, making the day even more special for those in attendance.
BENEFITS OF GNV INSTITUTO GALO
The exclusive advantages for GNV Instituto Galo members are not only meaningful, but also an achievement that increasingly helps create unforgettable moments for those who do not have the socioeconomic means to do so. In this way, for every home match, 513 tickets from the Inter Norte section (which represents 1.1% of Arena MRV’s capacity) will be made available exclusively to the group welcomed by the social program. Depending on the expected attendance for each specific commitment of the black-and-white team, this number of tickets may be higher.
However, it is important to note: the ticket will be assigned mandatorily and exclusively to the member’s CPF, and cannot be transferred to third parties in any way. Even so, the list of benefits extends to the Instituto Galo Clinic, which is yet to be inaugurated and will provide access to elective medical consultations in the future, in addition to English and vocational courses, both online and in person. The Galo na Veia Instituto Galo Program is more than access to matches — it is inclusion, dignity, and social transformation.
