United Way Hungary Champions Community Spirit at Annual Gala

Conferences

On November 30, United Way Hungary held its annual fundraising gala in the Budapest Marriott Hotel.

More than 180 guests, representing companies, institutions, NGOs, and volunteers, were invited to celebrate this year's achievements.

Under the motto "bringing together the caring power of local and regional communities", United Way programs mainly focus on children and youth. Helping children perform better through reading and financial literacy programs and supporting young people to develop their employability and entrepreneurship skills to get a better chance for economic mobility.

United Way is also very active in helping Ukrainian refugees to rebuild their lives in Hungary. The gala's dance performance by the G.A.S. Art group, who fled Ukraine over a year ago, introduced the difficulties and hopes of a new beginning through the sensitive creativity of dance. Besides the dance show, award ceremony, cocktail bar, live music, and auction made the evening memorable.
