Some examples of event-based fundraising

“Les 12 coups de Midi”

During the national ELA week, the TF1 Group organises a special week which highlights the association’s fight.
In addition to a call for donations relayed on each show, the amount won by the winner is added up and the total is donated to ELA.

Umbrella Sky

Umbrella Sky

More than 800 umbrellas of all colours were placed in the Village Royal in Paris, which was an ephemeral installation by Portuguese artist Patricia Cunha. To give a second life to these objects, they were put on sale in aid of ELA. The Village Royal then doubled the amount collected, which was donated in full to the fight against leukodystrophies.
