Another funded organization is the ** Nature Conservation Association Austria **, which has been fighting for the protection of animals, plants and habitats all over Austria since its foundation in 1913. With local species protection projects and national campaigns, important topics are made aware of. The highlights of the work include the protection of endangered species such as the wildcat and the river tube. In addition to active nature conservation measures, the public is also part of the central task of the association.

The third project that is supposed to benefit from the donations is ** E.Motion Equotherapy **. In addition to a charming farm near Pyhra, children with cancer and their families are supervised holistically. Contact with trained therapy horses and other animals is part of the concept to increase the quality of life of the children concerned. Every year, around 400 children benefit from the offers of this valuable facility.
