Madeira Friends

Building Madeira’s Future. A home for locals and internationals.

Madeira Friends is a nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering a vibrant, inclusive, and supportive community on the island of Madeira. We bring together a diverse group of individuals, including expats, digital nomads, and remote workers creating meaningful connections between locals and internationals. Our beneficiaries include both the local community—who benefit from skill-sharing initiatives, cultural exchanges, and giving-back initiatives—and our international members, who find a welcoming space to integrate, contribute, and feel at home on the island. Through our community-driven approach, we strive to enhance social cohesion, support personal and professional growth, and create opportunities for positive impact in Madeira. Whether through volunteering, workshops, local partnerships, or fundraising efforts, Madeira Friends is about giving back and fostering collaboration.
