António Serrano, CEO of Jerónimo Martins Agro-Alimentar and representative of the patrons of the Social Support Fund for Students of the University of Évora (FASE-UÉ), launched the challenge for the funds raised through patronage to double next year, allowing an increase in the number of students covered by the support. In the 2025/2026 academic year, 16 patrons contributed to the fund, which aims to support students in situations of socioeconomic vulnerability. The challenge now posed is to raise double the current amount for the next academic year. FASE-UÉ was created with the objective of combating school dropout at the University of Évora, providing financial support that allows students to remain enrolled and complete their studies.
