LOVE LIKE CHRIS · AROUND THE WORLD
A global community came together to create joy.
What happens when a global community unites to spread love? In Rio de Janeiro, it looked like a perfect day at the beach, echoing with the laughter of over 70 children. This unforgettable “Chris Carnero Day” was more than just an event—it was a beautiful testament to how people can come together across borders to create pure, unadulterated joy.
Driven by the incredible team at Embark Beyond and a network of generous, big-hearted travel partners from all around the world, this day truly pulled out all the stops. Our partners shared completely in this vision, proving that the spirit of this foundation transcends geography. Together, they transformed a stunning stretch of Rio’s coastline into a private festival of community, hosting over 70 children from a local favela for a day they will never forget.
A beach filled with laughter, games, and connection.
The beach was brought to life with vibrant carnival games, hands-on craft stations, and a massive, welcoming traditional BBQ. But the absolute highlight took place right on the sand: a spirited football match made truly unbelievable by the surprise arrival of Brazilian football legend Antonio Ribeiro. Having a national hero share the pitch, pass the ball, and celebrate with these children elevated the day into something magical. The smiles on their faces as they played alongside a legend captured exactly what this foundation is all about.
