VP Bank Foundation’s Lichtblick donation event
Since it was established in 2007, the VP Bank Foundation has supported social and charitable organisations with financial donations. On the occasion of this year's "Lichtblick" donation event, 28 institutions received donations of around 65,000 Swiss francs in a festive setting. The event was framed by three musicians from the youth section of the Harmoniemusik Vaduz.
Fredy Vogt, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the VP Bank Foundation, focused on the activities of the VP Bank Foundation in his welcoming address. In his words, the Foundation's statutes as well as its concrete sponsorship activities attach great importance to supporting socially and charitably active organisations. "In addition to promoting science, education, culture and the environment, the Foundation, which was established on the occasion of VP Bank's 50th anniversary, devotes special attention to supporting institutions that help the disadvantaged and contribute to social balance in society. The annual event for the presentation of donations is intended not only to express appreciation for the institutions and those responsible for them, but also to offer the participants an opportunity to exchange experiences and ideas".
With "Lichtblick", the VP Bank Foundation strengthens the commitment of these institutions and helps them to successfully fulfil their tasks. In addition, one institution at a time is given the opportunity to present its activities to the guests in attendance. At this year's fundraising event, the " Gehörlosen Kulturverein Liechtenstein" presented itself.
