UPDATES DURING THE RUN
|
Thanks to your support, sowieso! continues to grow with much enthusiasm. The established workshops can now be offered twice as often. With the "LABOR", a new inclusive encounter workshop was developed and there are many other ideas still to come.
I would like to help ensure that this great commitment of the team around sowieso! continues to receive the necessary financial support and for this I need your help again!
Since 2017 as part of my annual fundraising campaign for sowieso!, I'm priviledged to do what I love: listen to music and pocasts, meet the ultrarunning community, enjoy plenty of food, fresh air and nature ... and oh yes, do a little bit of running too, of course! This year, I'm going back to the roots where in 2017, I started the first time for sowieso!, namely in Gols in the official 48-hour run event.
Starting May 10, 2024, at 10am in Gols on a 1-kilometer lap, the aim is to achieve as many kilometers as possible within 48 hours by running, walking, crawling, or whatever but in any case by keeping moving - just like Martin Luther King, Jr, said: "If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward."
I would be very happy if you could convert my completed running kilometers at "Gols 2024 - 48 hours for sowieso!" into money to support sowieso!.
To do this, select either a fixed donation amount in the form below to support sowieso!
... or make it exciting and donate a basic amount per kilometer and - to keep my motivation high - an additional amount for each kilometer that I run over 150
kilometers.
Doubling of donations: my employer Macquarie has established the Macquarie Group Foundation which - besides of other activities - supports fundraising activities of its employees. This means, each Euro you donate for "Gols 2024 - 48 hours for sowieso!", Macquarie Group Foundation will also pay one additional Euro to sowieso!. So, for my motivation: each meter I run counts twice!
If you are an Austrian tax resident and want to deduct your donation, please enter your name in the form below as on the "Meldezettel". Furthermore, your date of
birth is required so that sowieso! can automatically report your donation to the tax authorities.
I hope, you are as excited about this charity in favour of sowieso! as I am and give a lot of (financial) support!
And for those not yet familiar with sowieso!: what does sowieso! actually do?
sowieso! – that is painting, handicrafting, building, making music, playing, exploring, discovering and being creative together!
In the Vienna based "ZOOM museum for children" and "Dschungel Vienna", sowieso! provides monthly art and movement workshops for children with disabilities aged 3 years plus. It's unique
in attaching one companion to each child, putting a dialogic structure in place . Therefore, the focus is on each child's individual needs. As the socio-economic situation should not be a factor
for children to participate, sowieso! art workshops are provided for free.
In this video, Leonie's father perfectly
summarizes what it's all about: „In former times, children were provided with less activities which led to children being less capable of things. This triggered the perception of these
children being less qualified for a lot of things. ... It's the most wonderful experience to see what our children are capable of and which variety of activities they can
follow!" . Let us help to provide many more parents and children this experience. sowieso! and their management committee, with whom I'm personally in contact, are thankfully grateful for our
help!
