i Live Help Alliance
Empowering Youth in Rio de Janeiro
The i Live Help Alliance e.V. supports social projects in Brazil that give children real opportunities for education, health, and a future.
Our Values
From Vision to Action
The i Live Help Alliance was born out of the values and vision of Amos Engelhardt, the founder of the i Live Group and Rioca.
Driven by a deep connection to people and cultures, Amos has always been convinced that entrepreneurial success should serve a higher purpose.
The i Live Group, known for its innovative and community-oriented living concepts across Europe, thus became the foundation for something greater: a movement of solidarity.
The Help Alliance brings this vision to life by transforming success into responsibility — and compassion into real, sustainable impact.

A Future for Children in Brazil’s Favelas
Our Projects Close to Our Hearts
The Children of the Harbor School
Padre Dr. Francisco da Motta – Rio de Janeiro
i Live and Rioca have been part of this story for over ten years. Every year, more than 600 children are supported by the school — with education, daily meals, and a safe place where they can grow and shape their future.
Espaço Aberto Dance School
Favela da Rocinha – Rio de Janeiro
Since 1998, Espaço Aberto has provided children and young people from disadvantaged neighborhoods in Rio de Janeiro with free access to dance, self-expression, and cultural education.
Crianca do Futuro Football School
Favela da Rocinha – Rio de Janeiro
Criança do Futuro is a football school located in the Rocinha favela in Rio de Janeiro. More than 100 children regularly receive training, care, and guidance there. The project takes children off the streets and, through sport, gives them structure, stability, and new perspectives.
Together we can
make a difference
Our Contribution
How We Raise Funds
How we raise funds is part of our everyday life and begins with small, conscious decisions. Simple actions grow into long-term impact. Beyond traditional donations, we aim to touch people and create a shared sense of responsibility. Employees, partners, guests, and residents become part of our mission and demonstrate the difference we can make together. In this way, up to €40,000 flows each year directly and in full into the social projects we support.
- €0.50 per Caipirinha sold at Rioca
- €1 for every room cleaning that guests voluntarily choose to skip.
