Iron Road for Children: Big family festival in Leoben for sick children!

Leoben, Österreich - in Leoben it will go really hot from June 19 to 2225 - but not only because of the sun. At the event "Iron Road for Children" (IRFC), everything revolves around bikes, vespas and US cars, in the sense of a good cause. In an impressive atmosphere, over 40,000 visitors are to be expected who want to come together for seriously ill children from all over Austria. The motto "A heart for children - petrol in the blood" impressively shows how much passion is involved here. Admission is free, but donations are welcome.

The event location-the inner city of Leoben-is transformed into a cross-generational festival that not only attracts with spectacular trips and live concerts, but also through a large street food and exhibitor area as well as a area specially designed for children. A new highlight will be the Galleria de Vespa in the Kunsthalle Leoben, where various Vespa models are exhibited. Incidentally, registration for the exhibition is possible at Angen@ironroad-events.com . This is a great opportunity for all Vespa enthusiasts to participate.

an event with heart and soul

The event partners, including the Schwechater Vespa, play an important role in the success of the festival. The focus is particularly on five main donation children from all over Austria, which are to be supported with the collected funds. A call to participate and spread the event is intended not only for organizers, but also for all supporters. Over time, the event changed from a small meeting to a large, family -friendly festival.

The importance of such events is undisputed. In Austria as well as in Germany, many children's aid organizations show how important it is to help children in need. In 2023, 75% of private donations in Germany flowed into humanitarian aid, with child and youth welfare playing a large part. The support from events such as the IRFC not only gives hope to the families concerned, but also creates a common feeling of solidarity.

committed organizations at a glance

A look at the numerous organizations is worthwhile that are in need for children. Here are some of them:

  • Kinderothilfe
  • Plan International Germany
  • SOS Children's Village
  • SOS Children's village Hermann-Gmeiner Fund Germany
  • World Vision Germany

These organizations enable sponsorships that not only benefit the children, but also their families and the entire social context. Such sponsorships are quickly taken over and the donors are regularly informed about the state of affairs. However, it is important to pay attention to how efficiently the organizations work - ideally at least 70 cents should benefit from the purpose of the donation from every euro.

The IRFC in Leoben not only promises a festival for all car fans, but also a wonderful way to do good. You can find more information and news on the website www.irfc.at . Take a look into it and get involved - because together we can make a difference!
