The American Society of São Paulo

A little about us:

The American Society of São Paulo is a civil, non-profit association founded on May 10, 1950.  The Society is led by a Board of 20 dedicated volunteers, some of whom can be non-American citizens. There are four executive positions; President, Vice-President, Treasurer, and Secretary; the President must be an American citizen.The day to day activities are managed by an office manager and her staff.

In 2009, the General Meeting approved the formation of the President's Council. This Council is made up of ex-Presidents of the Board whom are available to the Board on an advisory capacity. Every year a deserving member of our society nominated by our members is honored by the board with the Eric Poliak Award in recognition of the highest individual qualities in service to education, philanthropy and volunteerism.

The Society acts as a liaison and promotes friendship between the membership and a variety of organizations, including the American Consulate, the American Chamber of Commerce, American schools, churches, charities, and athletic groups, to name a few by organizing social, cultural, and athletic events for its diverse  membership; encourages integration with the Brazilian society; and supporting beloved  American traditions

The American Society concentrates on five pillars of well being for its members and community:
