On April 5, 2025, the volunteer team of the cultural and aid organization Fondation La Grande had the wonderful opportunity to once again collect donations and celebrate Congolese culture through a variety of culinary delicacies. This event aimed to support widows and orphans in the Democratic Republic of Congo and enable them a better future. Heartfelt thanks go to the tireless organizers of the Refugee Ball, as well as to the entire dedicated volunteer team of the Fondation La Grande in Austria, who worked passionately for a noble cause until the early hours of the morning. Thanks to their dedication, enriching conversations about the Congo and our valuable work were held, which already makes us look forward to the next Refugee Ball with great anticipation. Every euro counts and unleashes its full power to positively influence the lives of others.
The collected donations have already been successfully delivered to our team in Congo. These funds will go directly towards the construction of a much-needed retirement home for widows and a supervised children's home for orphans, both of which will serve as safe havens.

Learn more about our significant construction project and our progress at our upcoming event on November 29, 2025, in Vienna. There, you'll have the opportunity to learn more details and connect with our team.

May God bless you abundantly and continue to make your support so valuable and meaningful to our mission!
