Obertauern starts skiing season with swinging for pink ribbon!

Vienna/Obertauern, December 02, 2024 - on December 3, the "Giving Tuesday", Caritas will draw attention to solidarity and charity with numerous donation organizations. After the consumer weddings of the "Black Friday" and "Cyber ​​Monday", this day reminds that money can also be spent sensibly. Caritas offers via the platform schenkenmitsinn.at A number of gift ideas that give both gifting and recipient joy - including a goat to support women in Burundi or a heat package for homeless people in Austria. Every gift helps to improve the lives of the needy, whereby the donations flow directly into urgent aid projects.

Prominent support for an important thing

The Caritas receives support from well-known personalities such as pop star Christina Stürmer and the cabaret artist Manuel Rubey, who are committed to the “Caritas Karma” tennis socks. These socks are printed with encouraging messages and contribute to the financing of projects for people affected by poverty in Austria. This initiative shows how important it is to think of the needy even during Christmas, and also offers the opportunity to make your own contribution to help through individual gift actions.

At the same time, the event "Swinging in for Pink Ribbon" took place on November 24, 2024 in Obertauern, which celebrated the start of the season of the 2024/25 ski season. Participants, including prominent athletes such as Anna Veith, wore sporty clothing combined with elegant evening fashion to draw attention to breast cancer education. The day started with a skiing start at 8:30 a.m., followed by an exclusive "Pink Brunch", in which the proceeds from a raffle are donated to 100 % of Austrian cancer aid. Tourism director Mona Maier underlined the importance of this event for the community and the promotion of women's health.

The combination of sporting activity and charity during such actions reflects the commitment of the organizers to promote both a healthy lifestyle and to create important awareness of the early detection of cancer. The event is accompanied by a large social tradition and responsibility towards the community. Another highlight will soon follow: On November 29, the band Scooter will inspire the audience in Obertauern, and thus promises an energetic start to the winter season.
