Fundacao Gente do Mar is a Brazilian private foundation (fundação privada) - a non-membership legal entity created by the founder(s) endowing it with assets dedicated to a specific charitable, religious, cultural, educational, scientific, or moral purpose. Foundations are governed under articles 62-69 of the Civil Code and are subject to permanent oversight by the local Ministério Público (public prosecutor's office). Fundações are the second-most common legal form for Brazilian nonprofits. Unlike associações, they have no members and require permanent oversight by the local Ministério Público to ensure the founder's specified purpose continues to be served. It is registered with the Receita Federal under the Cadastro Nacional da Pessoa Jurídica (CNPJ), with CNPJ 07743411/0001-16.

You can verify Fundacao Gente do Mar's legal status in three ways. First, look up the Receita Federal CNPJ record directly: https://solucoes.receita.fazenda.gov.br/Servicos/cnpjreva/Cnpjreva_Solicitacao.asp and enter CNPJ 07743411/0001-16. The result page shows the official razão social, legal form (natureza jurídica), registered address, primary economic activity (CNAE), and current status (ativa / suspensa / baixada). Second, search the Mapa das OSCs maintained by IPEA (https://mapaosc.ipea.gov.br/) using either the name or the CNPJ 07743411000116. Mapa OSC aggregates Receita data plus public-sector partnerships and employment counts for over 800,000 Brazilian civil-society organisations. Third, ask the organisation for its most recent estatuto social (bylaws, registered with the local cartório de registro civil de pessoas jurídicas) and its most recent prestação de contas (annual financial report) - legitimate Brazilian nonprofits will share these on request. If the CNPJ is active, the Mapa OSC record matches, and the estatuto / financial report are available, the organisation is legitimate.
