Fundraising Events
Performances by the Bellevaux Theater Group
In November 2001, we invited you to a theater evening to raise the funds needed to rebuild the “Los Pollitos” school in Cailagua, Nicaragua. The performance of the play, *Flight Over a Nest of Volunteers*, was made possible thanks to Christèle Fürbringer, one of the troupe’s actresses and a former member of the Association. The troupe performed for free on this occasion, and it was a memorable event filled with meaningful exchanges and encounters with our many donor friends who attended. We would like to extend our warmest thanks to the Puplinge Town Hall, which graciously provided the community hall for the evening.
This event raised 2,300 CHF
The Bellevaux theater group performed once again in support of MOST Association, staging the comedy “Les Deux Vierges” by Jean-Jacques Bricaire and Maurice Lasaygues on November 26, 2005, at the Collège de Terre Sainte hall in Coppet. We would like to extend our warmest thanks to the managers of the Collège de Terre Sainte hall, who graciously made the venue available to us.
This event raised 1,230 CHF, which was donated to the Ruben Dario School renovation project.
HAIRSTYLING FOR LADIES A comedy by Robert Harling, adapted by Claire Nadeau and Michèle Laroque. The performance took place on November 25, 2006, at the Collège de Terre Sainte auditorium in Coppet.
