FBM Foundation helps Rio Grande do Sul communities with substantial donation from FBM Brazil

In a heartfelt display of solidarity, the FBM Foundation has announced a significant milestone in its ongoing commitment to humanitarian causes through FBM Brazil’s support.
A generous donation of 500 grocery baskets, 500 personal hygiene kits, and 9,000 liters of water will be delivered and distributed to struggling communities in Rio Grande, Brazil. This effort will be carried out in partnership with Central Única das Favelas (CUFA) in Porto Alegre, with J&T Express Brazil and Correios Sedex Brasil providing transportation.
The most recent and devastating Rio Grande natural disasters, that provoked floods, landslides, and extreme weather events, have left communities grappling with immense challenges, from widespread displacement to the destruction of homes, infrastructure, and livelihoods.
Given the context of these calamities and the urgent need to assist these families, FBM Foundation’s donation emerged as a powerful alliance dedicated to promoting positive change in communities worldwide. With FBM Brazil’s substantial contribution, the organisation aims to make an impact in supporting these communities.
Beyond financial assistance, FBM Foundation recognizes the power of awareness and advocacy in driving meaningful change. Through strategic communication efforts, the organisation aims to raise awareness for additional support from like-minded individuals and organizations.
At the heart of this donation lies a shared vision of creating a brighter, more inclusive world for all. By supporting Rio Grande do Sul, FBM Foundation reaffirms its commitment to making a tangible difference in the lives of those in need.
“As a foundation deeply rooted in Brazilian heritage, FBM Foundation takes pride in its origins and the rich cultural background of Brazil. We have a legacy shaped by the spirit of proximity, compassion, and innovation, so we want to honour its Brazilian roots while embracing a global perspective in its solidarity endeavours”, shares Renato Almeida, Director at the FBM Group.
As we continue this journey of solidarity, FBM Foundation invites individuals and entities alike to join hands in creating a brighter future for all. Through collective actions, we can uplift communities, inspire change, and leave a lasting impact on the world.

Dutch Gaming Authority Intensifies Supervision of Advertising Rules for Sports Sponsorship

The Dutch Gaming Authority (KSA) will tighten its supervision of the ban on sports sponsorship that will come into effect on 1 July of this year this summer. The supervisor announced this in an information letter to Dutch providers of online gambling.
On 1 July 2023, the ban on non-targeted advertising for online gambling came into effect. This put an end to advertising in public places and in buildings accessible to the public. Because long-term contracts are often concluded for sports sponsorship, a transitional arrangement applied to this form of advertising until July 2025. This will expire this summer. Sponsorship of athletes, teams of athletes, but also, for example, of clubs, competitions, shirts and other (promotional) material will no longer be permitted from that moment on.
The KSA will be extra vigilant this summer for violations of the advertising ban and will take immediate enforcement action. In the run-up to the ban, the supervisor is also in talks with industry associations about the impact of the ban and any questions that may still be relevant to the industry.
Michel Groothuizen, chairman of the board of the Gaming Authority, said: “In other countries with a similar ban, we see that gambling providers try to circumvent the ban in creative ways. As far as I’m concerned, that is not the case in the Netherlands. This law was drawn up to protect young adults and other vulnerable groups. You do that by preventing them from being exposed to gambling advertising, regardless of who the advertising comes from. We at KSA will be very vigilant about that.”
