The heart sits at the top of
the crest because the heart is
where kindness, generosity,
and purity are born.

The diamond on the shield, in the
center of the crest, represents the
importance of protecting others
with unity and wisdom.

"Altruismo" is Portuguese
for "altruism," or "the givers"
- and that is what we are
known for being!

With the head of an eagle and the
courage of a lion, the griffin is one
of the most powerful of all animals
known for both strength and grace,
fierceness and nurturing.

The color black represents prestige
and an elite quality, just like our
kids. We are a House filled with
talent, and we like to win.

Black is also the one color
that contains all other colors
- representing our goal of
empowering all others.
