The Hope Gala in Dresden was again a complete success: almost 180,000 euros were collected for the Nelson Mandela Children's Fund and other aid projects in South Africa

The 14th edition of the Hope Gala took place on Saturday evening in the Kempinski Hotel Taschenbergpalais in Dresden. Prominent personalities from politics, business, culture and society came together to support the Nelson Mandela Children's Fund and other aid projects in South Africa.

Under the motto "Celebrating Hope - 18 Years of Hope Gala Dresden", the guests experienced an unforgettable evening with a varied program. The highlight was the auction of unique items, such as a painting by Nelson Mandela or a trip to South Africa.

The proceeds of the gala will benefit the Nelson Mandela Children's Fund and other aid projects in South Africa.
