Reading time: 2 Min
The "Lichtblick" fundraising event of the VP Bank Foundation took place on Wednesday, 6 November at VP Bank in Triesen. 29 social and charitable institutions in Liechtenstein received donations totalling around CHF 80,000.

Since its establishment in 2007, the VP Bank Foundation has been supporting socially and charitably committed organisations with financial donations. At this year's "Lichtblick" fundraising event, 29 institutions received donations totalling around 80,000 Swiss francs in a festive atmosphere.

Alois Beck, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the VP Bank Foundation, focused his welcoming address on the activities of the VP Bank Foundation. According to him, the support of social and charitable organisations has a high priority both in the Foundation's statutes and in its concrete sponsoring activities. In addition to promoting science, education, culture and the environment, the Foundation, which was established on the occasion of VP Bank's 50th anniversary, pays particular attention to supporting institutions that help the disadvantaged and contribute to social equality in society. The annual donation ceremony is intended not only as an expression of appreciation for the institutions and their leaders, but also as an opportunity for the participants to exchange experiences and ideas.

With "Lichtblick", the VP Bank Foundation strengthens the commitment of these institutions and supports them in the successful fulfilment of their tasks. In addition, one institution is given the opportunity to present its activities to the guests in attendance. At this year's event, Caritas Liechtenstein presented itself.
