MAPS Endowment Nears $250,000 Goal in 10th Year
MAPS celebrates the creation of three new Funds as the MAPS Endowment approaches its goal of $250,000 and completes its 10th anniversary year on June 30th. MAPS created its Endowment to engage in long-term financial planning, and
to help develop programs vital to the community. As a non-profit organization, we depend to a large degree on government grants and contracts to fund our services and operations.
“Often this leads to gaps in services because the contracts dictate what services and communities they would like to
cover,” said Paulo Pinto, MPA, MAPS Executive Director. “Programs for the elderly, children and immigrants in general
are often overlooked.”
The MAPS Endowment currently includes 17 different funds totaling more than $234,000 as of March 2013, including
three that were just created: the Joe and Dorothy Chaves Family Fund, for Citizenship Services; the Sal Couto Family
Fund, for Elder Services; and the Carlos Lima Family Fund, for Citizenship and Civic Activism.
“MAPS is grateful for the leadership, insight and support of Sal Couto, Álvaro Lima, and Dorothy and Phillip Chaves
for establishing funds that will be there for the long-term to promote and support our community, while creating an everlasting legacy for their own families,” announced Pinto.
As soon as it reaches the critical $250,000 level, the Endowment will start contributing annually to the program areas designated by those who created each of the funds—general operating,
elder services, youth services, social services, promoting civic engagement, and more.
“MAPS, as an institution, will be there to meet the needs of our community well into the future,” said Pinto.
New funds can be added at any time with contributions of as little as $1,000. For more information, please visit www.maps-inc.org/participate/endowment. The MAPS Endowment is managed by
the Greater Lowell Community Foundation (GLCF).
Celebrating Immigrants’ Day
MAPS had a strong presence on Monday,
April 8th, at the annual Immigrants’ Day at
the State House. Staff, Board members,
volunteers and a large and energetic group
of seniors from the Cambridge and Lowell
areas attended the event, which was hosted
by the Massachusetts Immigrants and
Refugees Advocacy (MIRA) Coalition.
The seniors also enjoyed a special lunch,
prepared by MAPS Cambridge Senior Center Coordinator Julia Evora.

MAPS Joins in Sexual Assault Awareness Month & White Ribbon Day Activities
April was the national Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM), and MAPS engaged in several activities to raise community awareness about sexual assault and how Portuguese-speaking victims can get help in their own language.
The MAPS Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault (DV/SA) Services team and several volunteers were among the nearly 1,300 people participating in the annual Walk for
Change held by the Boston Area Rape Crisis Center on April 7 starting at Canal Park in
Cambridge. Team members joined in Lowell's Take Back the Day AND Night activities on April 24 as well. Staff also set up informational tables with materials such as Portuguese-language posters, bracelets, buttons and flyers about sexual assault, in the
MAPS Cambridge, Brighton, Dorchester, and Lowell offices.

UMass Boston. A Cape Verdean immigrant, Dr. Macedo is well-known as a critical theorist, linguist, and expert on
literacy and education studies. He’s also beloved in the community for securing $30 million in grants to support students of many backgrounds who would otherwise not have been able to pursue their university studies.
“I am emotional to receive this award from an agency that I have always respected,” said Macedo.
The MAPS Jorge Fidalgo Community Service Award was presented by the late Mr. Fidalgo’s son, Joshua Fidalgo,
to Airam da Silva, MPH, president of the Icla da Silva Foundation, a non-profit organization which for more than 20
years has done community outreach all over the country and in Puerto Rico to register bone marrow donors, especially
those from minority communities. Airam da Silva and his family came to the US from Brazil seeking medical intervention for his sister, Icla da Silva, who eventually lost her battle with leukemia at the young age of 13.
“Our work could not be done without the help of organizations like MAPS,” da Silva said, thanking the agency for
helping him open the doors to churches, community organizations, health fairs, and other donor recruitment sites. He
invited listeners to help the foundation connect with many more donors, adding, “Please join us in saving lives.”
This year, Cissy Coutinho presented two of the MAPS Manuel N. Coutinho Outstanding
Volunteer Awards named after her late father. The first went to Maria Carvalho, LICSW,
volunteer Board President of the Portuguese School of Cambridge and Somerville for the last
four years and a volunteer there for much longer. Carvalho stressed the importance of learning foreign languages, especially the languages of their heritage, in her case Portuguese.
“Learning Portuguese matters!” she said, sharing credit for her award with the other
Portuguese School leaders, students and parents.
The other Coutinho Award recipient was Nelson Augusto da Silva, a longtime Cape Verdean community volunteer who, according to Ms. Coutinho, “might have come from humble
beginnings, but used this experience and his passion for reading and writing to pass on to
Social Hour
others one of the most useful and empowering gifts someone can give – literacy.”
“My soul pushed me to do that,” said da Silva. “The best thing people can do is to serve their fellow man.”
Sal Couto, CEO of the Couto Management Group, received the MAPS Álvaro Lima Outstanding Business Award
from Álvaro Lima himself, for his success as an entrepreneur. He started his first Dunkin’ Donuts establishment in
Allston more than 25 years ago, and now employs over a thousand people while supporting more than 60 Dunkin’
Donuts establishments.
“I am a proud member of the Portuguese-speaking community that has made of this country a better place,” said
Couto, recalling that he learned English at the Cambridge social service office that now serves as MAPS’ headquarters.
Earlier that evening, a red-carpet reception lit with paparazzi flashes, and a serenade by violinist Robert Flax,
welcomed Gala guests into the ballroom foyer for a cocktail hour. The banquet and awards ceremony followed in the
main ballroom, decorated with seashell table centerpieces and blue stage backlighting complementing the evening’s
nautical theme. Traditional Azorean music performed by Portuguese guitarist João Silva completed the ambiance, and
guests were also treated to a lively performance by the popular Brazilian drumming and percussion group Grooversity,
with Marcus Santos. Guests also saw a short video featuring testimonials provided by grateful MAPS clients.
Gala Co-Chairs Paula Coutinho, a member of the MAPS Board of Directors, and Alírio Pereira, MAPS Child Social
Worker and Batterer Intervention Program Coordinator, welcomed all the guests and thanked them for their support.
The Gala Co-Hosts—MAPS Board Member Filipe Zamborlini and Laura Rodrigues, who is a MAPS Women’s Health
Educator—commanded the stage with youthful elegance and charisma.
Albeit a festive celebration, the MAPS 2013 Awards Gala did not ignore the recent tragedy at the Boston Marathon. Guests stood for a moment of silence to honor victims of last month’s terrorist attacks in the Boston area.
The night ended with fun on the dance floor, accompanied by a mix of Portuguese, Cape Verdean, Brazilian and
American music played by DJ Manny Morais. There was also a drawing for nine prizes in the Sea of Luck raffle, available exclusively for Gala attendees, and the four exciting prizes in the Grand Raffle, won by:
• 1st Prize - $5,000 CASH- Winner: Tom Quinn, Ticket #713
• 2d Prize - Trip for 2 to Portugal! (Round trip airfare for 2 sponsored by SATA Airlines; 4-night stay for 2 with breakfast, sponsored by Hotel Mundial in Lisbon) – Winner: R. Lima, Ticket #809

MAPS Homenageia Pessoas de Destaque na Festa de Gala 2013
Mais de 360 convidados se juntaram a nós na Festa de Gala da MAPS 2013, realizada no dia 4 de maio, no Renaissance
Boston Waterfront Hotel. O evento de arrecadação de fundos comemorou as tradições marítimas dos povos de língua
portuguesa, e homenageou seis pessoas de destaque que inspiraram e fizeram a diferença na vida de muitos
imigrantes.
O Prêmio de Pessoa do Ano foi para Anthony Silva, Editor de Negócios para a Nova Inglaterra e Âncora
da Rádio WBZ. Filho de um português que, por sua vez, também fez importantes contribuições para a
comunidade, Silva é um repórter, editor e produtor premiado, e âncora de rádio, há quase 35 anos.
“Ele pode ser humilde em relação a isso, mas certamente elevou o padrão de realizações em nossa
comunidade, e nós não poderíamos pedir por um melhor modelo de conduta na mídia que Anthony Silva,”
disse Elizabeth Chaves, Presidente da Diretoria da MAPS, que entregou o prêmio ao lado de Paulo Pinto,
Diretor Executivo da agência.
Anthony Silva e esposa
“É preciso haver uma comunidade para que uma vila seja forte, e isso é o que a MAPS faz,” disse Silva.
“Eu falo na rádio. Vocês lidam com as pessoas diretamente, com seus problemas reais, no dia-a-dia, e eu os
respeito muito por isso.”
Sal Couto, CEO do Couto Management Group, recebeu o Prêmio MAPS Álvaro
Lima Empresa de Destaque das mãos do próprio Álvaro Lima, por seu sucesso como
empreendedor. Ele adquiriu sua primeira loja Dunkin’ Donuts em Allston há mais de
25 anos. Hoje, o Couto Management Group emprega mais de mil pessoas e possui
mais de 60 lojas Dunkin’ Donuts.
Sal Couto e esposa
“Eu tenho orgulho em fazer parte da comunidade de língua portuguesa que ajudou
a fazer deste país um lugar melhor,” disse Couto, lembrando que aprendeu inglês no
escritório de serviços sociais em Cambridge onde hoje funciona a sede administrativa
da MAPS.
O Prêmio MAPS Jorge Fidalgo de Serviço Comunitário foi
apresentado pelo filho de Jorge Fidalgo, Joshua Fidalgo, a Airam
da Silva, Presidente da Fundação Icla da Silva, uma organização
sem fins lucrativos que há mais de 20 anos faz campanhas em todo
o país e em Porto Rico para recrutar doadores de medula óssea,
especialmente entre as minorias comunitárias. Airam da Silva veio
do Brasil para os Estados Unidos com sua família em busca de
tratamento médico para sua irmã, Icla da Silva, que viria a falecer
vítima de leucemia, aos 13 anos.
Álvaro Lima
Família Fidalgo
“Nós não poderíamos fazer este trabalho sem a ajuda de
organizações como a MAPS,” disse da Silva, agradecendo à agência por tê-lo ajudado a abrir portas de
igrejas, organizações comunitárias, feiras de saúde, e outros locais de recrutamento. Ele convidou os
presentes a ajudarem a fundação a encontrar mais doadores: “Juntem-se a nós e nos ajudem a salvar
vidas.”
Manuel Rogers, Jr.
Manuel Rogers, Jr., apresentou o prêmio MAPS Mary & Manuel
Rogers da Vida Dedicada ao Serviço Comunitário, com o nome de seus
pais, a Donaldo Macedo, Professor de Artes Livres e Educação da
UMass Boston. Um imigrante de Cabo Verde, Dr. Macedo é bastante
conhecido como um teórico crítico, linguista, e expert em estudos de
alfabetizaçào e educação. Ele é também adorado pela comunidade por
ter conseguido $30 milhões em verbas para apoiar alunos de várias
origens que, de outra maneira, não poderiam estudar numa
universidade. “Eu me sinto emocionado por receber este prêmio de
uma agência que eu sempre respeitei,” disse Macedo.

Este ano, Cissy Coutinho apresentou dois prêmios MAPS Manuel N. Coutinho de Voluntariado de
Destaque, que levam o nome de seu pai. O primeiro foi dado
a Maria Carvalho, há quatro anos presidente voluntária da
Diretoria da Escola Portuguesa de Cambridge e Somerville, e
voluntária no local em outras funções há muito mais tempo.
Sra. Carvalho destacou a importância de se aprender outras
línguas, especialmente aquelas de suas origens, como o
português, em seu caso.
“É importante aprender português!” ela disse, dividindo o
crédito por seu prêmio com os demais líderes, alunos e pais
de alunos da Escola Portuguesa.

O outro prêmio de Voluntariado de Destaque foi para Nelson Augusto da Silva, voluntário de longa data
na comunidade cabo-verdiana que, de acordo com Coutinho, “pode ter origem humilde, mas usou sua
experiência e sua paixão pela leitura e a escrita para passar a outras pessoas o
maior e mais útil presente que alguém pode dar – a alfabetização.”
“Minha alma me levou a fazer isso,” disse da Silva. “A melhor coisa que se pode
fazer é servir aos semelhantes.”
Nelson Augusto da Silva (terceiro à esq.) e família
Mais cedo, uma recepção em tapete vermelho, iluminada pelos flashes dos
paparazzi, e com uma serenata do violinista Robert Flax, deu as boas-vindas aos
convidados na área do coquetel social. O jantar gourmet e a cerimônia de
premiação se seguiram no salão principal, decorado com arranjos de mesa com
conchas marinhas e luzes de fundo azuis no palco, como parte do tema náutico da
noite. A música tradicional açoriana do guitarrista português João Silva completou
o ambiente. Os convidados ainda foram brindados com uma animada apresentação
do grupo de percussão Grooversity, com Marcus Santos. Também foi apresentado
um vídeo, com depoimentos de clientes da MAPS.
Os Co-Presidentes da Festa de Gala Paula Coutinho, integrante da Diretoria da
MAPS, e Alírio Pereira, Assistente Social e Coordenador do Programa de
Intervenção de Agressores da organização, agradeceram o apoio de todos os
convidados. Os apresentadores Filipe Zamborlini, da Diretoria da MAPS, e Laura
Rodrigues, Educadora de Saúde Feminina da agência —comandaram o palco com
graça, elegância, carisma e personalidade.
Laura Rodrigues e Filipe Zamborlini
Apesar de ser um evento festivo, a Festa de Gala 2013 da MAPS não ignorou a
recente tragédia na Maratona de Boston. Antes do jantar, os convidados se puseram
de pé para um momento de silêncio em
homenagem às vítimas dos ataques
terroristas em Boston no mês passado.
A Festa de Gala também contou com o sorteio de quatro prêmios na Grande Rifa
(incluindo $5,000 em dinheiro no primeiro prêmio, uma viagem com acompanhante
para Lisboa, doação da SATA Airlines e Hotel Mundial, no segundo prêmio, entre
outros), e nove outros prêmios da rifa Sea of Luck, disponível apenas para os
presentes. A noite terminou com muita dança ao som do DJ Manny Morais, que tocou
músicas portuguesas, cabo-verdianas, brasileiras e americanas.
