SPOG charity concert to support children from Ukraine with cancer

After a two-year break due to the pandemic, SPOG was finally able to organise its biannual charity concert in aid of clinical research into childhood cancer once again. In light of current events, SPOG and the participating choirs decided to donate the entire proceeds of the charity concert to benefit children from Ukraine with cancer.

A large number of music-lovers and SPOG supporters came together on 7 May 2022 to enjoy a concert full of varied and popular songs from all over the world performed by different choirs.

The focus throughout the event was on support for children and adolescents with cancer. There was no charge for admission to the concert to enable as many people as possible to attend, but visitors were invited to make a donation. The audience was very generous, and SPOG was able to hand over more than CHF 5,300 for children and adolescents from Ukraine with cancer.

SPOG is grateful for the commitment and support provided by all the participants and visitors and is already looking forward to the next charity concert in 2024. Visit our events calendar to stay up to date and find out more about future SPOG events.

We would also like to invite you to make a donation to the childhood cancer research conducted by SPOG. No matter how small, every donation helps us to continue our important work in clinical research into childhood cancer and to improve the lives of children and adolescents with cancer.
