She thanked everyone present for her support.

The highlights of the evening included appearances by Starmania finalist Laura del Fiore, the Vocal Band Basbaritenori and the cabaret artist Andreas Vitastic. The band Pizza Provincial also created a cheerful atmosphere and showed that the interaction of culture and helpfulness can set a strong sign.

Among the invited guests were numerous personalities, including "light in the dark" vice president Daniel Bohmann, the Burgenland coordinator Elisabeth Pauer-Gerbavsits, ORF Burgenland director Werner Herics and superintendent Robert Jonge, all of whom recognized the importance of such benefit events.
