Sponsored run WlfK 2024

This year we were able to hold this fantastic event in the most beautiful weather.

Many children and adults found their way to the festival site, enjoyed the warm autumn sun, the delicacies from the event snack bar and the dance performances by the groups body & dance art from Rothenthurm and Dance Center from Unterägeri.

And, of course, there were also plenty of running laps...

... and so at the end of the day, thanks to the runners and sponsors, a fantastic sum of almost CHF 30,000 was raised.

Many thanks to everyone involved and to the whole crew of helpers under the direction of Juliana Gasser.

LIVIA

My time at the "Home of Joy" children's home in Uganda was a formative and enriching experience. During my stay, I was not only able to make a direct contribution to the children's everyday lives, but also gain valuable insights into a different culture and way of life.

I helped look after the children, assisted with everyday tasks and organized playful and creative activities. I was particularly impressed by the warmth and joie de vivre of the children and the commitment of the staff. On site, I experienced a caring and supportive environment in which solidarity and mutual appreciation were tangible.

This experience broadened my view of the world and showed me how important interpersonal commitment is. I am very grateful for my time at the "Home of Joy" - it made me grow personally and I will always remember it.
