A free ticket contingent for cancer patients
If you want to heal the body, you also have to do something good for the soul.
A free ticket contingent is made available for cancer patients thanks to Casinos Austria’s cooperation and sponsorship partnerships with a wide range of institutions. These include the Burgtheater, the Bregenz Festival, the Vereinigte Bühnen Wien and the Beach Volleyball European Championships on Vienna’s Donauinsel in early August of 2023.
The tickets are offered by the Austrian Cancer Aid to cancer patients who are already receiving care, especially those who have experienced financial hardship as a result of their illness.
“Cancer takes a lot of strength. It’s very often difficult for those affected to switch off and not let their thoughts be constantly occupied by the disease,” says Monika Hartl, a spokesperson for cancer support counsellors. “That’s why it’s all the more gratifying that Casinos Austria offers those affected an opportunity to experience a wonderful time away from it all with the “Happy Moments” initiative. Especially during stressful phases in life, it’s immensely helpful to feel a sense of lightness through joyful moments and be able to gain strength, hope and confidence.”
