A bumper cheque

The Foundation received a cheque for CHF 70,000 from the Fondation de la «Nuit des Neiges» on 29 August 2008 as well as a CHF 20,000 private donation. The funds were raised in February at the charity’s twenty-fifth annual snow-themed gala evening in Crans-Montana. With 550 guests, this year’s event was the biggest yet, and raised a total of CHF 180,000, to be shared between a number of charities. What a success!

Night of the Snow

The «night of stars» - 25 years of charity. The annual «Night of the Snow», a gala dedicated to raising funds for charity, is already a time-honoured tradition in the Valais, the home canton of FIFA President Joseph S. Blatter. On 23 February 2008, to mark its 25th anniversary, the gala concentrated on football and the fight against cancer, represented by the Sepp Blatter Humanity and Football Foundation and A.V.E.C. («Association pour la Vie-Espoir contre le Cancer»), an organisation dedicated to the fight against cancer.
