HOPE Gala Dresden

Celebrating life and sustaining this celebration in sharing wealth. Inviting others to do the same is also important. This is what the HOPE Gala in Dresden is all about.

And this is not only done because it is the right thing to do. It is done because giving is receiving. Receiving not only in an altruistic sense, but in understanding the deep-rooted changes our world and societies are going through.

How we act now, will decide the lives and future of the next generations. Never before had human mankind the capacity of understanding this statement so loud and clear. And it seems that instead of listening, people act diametrically. They try to keep what they have, hold, and know now. Anxiety and doomsday prophets, populists and self-proclaimed leaders are in overdrive in our days.

The challenges of today can only be overcome when we think and act globally. The problems we face as human species can only be solved when we understand, how we depend on each other. And that no money of this world and no island creating politics will change this fact.

Solidarity and synergies are needed, compassion and bravery, dedication and determination. And all those we celebrate when joining the HOPE Gala. Because those are the ingredients of a life well lived.

The HOPE Gala is about supporting the work of an NGO. It’s about doing good. It’s about Africa. But it is so much more. It is about being part of people believing in a better tomorrow for all, which only can be achieved together – starting today.
