Hopefuls defy rainy weather: Tour of Hope 2023 stops at medDV

Fernwald, 27.07.2023 – The annual fundraising bike tour “Tour of Hope” for the benefit of children and young people with cancer in Germany made an inspiring stop yesterday at the company medDV in Fernwald. Despite the changeable weather, the participants did not let themselves be diverted from their mission and gathered in large numbers to do good together.

Since its inception in 1983, the Tour of Hope has tirelessly fought to improve the lives of young cancer patients and their families. Each summer, cycling enthusiasts, donors and supporters pedal to raise vital funds to support children with cancer.

This year’s stop at medDV not only provided the participants with a stage for the emotional handover of donations, but also a variety of delicious treats generously provided by the Künkel bakery, Rewe Fernwald and the Fernwald municipality.  Coffee, cake, cold drinks and sandwiches provided the necessary refreshment, while the good mood and atmosphere of solidarity made the rain clouds forgotten in no time.

This year, the Tour of Hope received special support: Among others, star chef Johann Lafer and biathlete Magdalena Neuner, well-known personalities from the culinary and sports world, were also present and brought their enthusiasm for the good cause.

The handing over of the donation checks from the company medDV, the bakery Künkel, the Rewe Fernwald and the municipality Fernwald as well as other donors, made it clear that only joint action can bring about a real change. Every contribution was gratefully received and will make a valuable contribution to making the lives of the young fighters easier.

The Tour of Hope proves once again that it is a source of inspiration and cohesion. Through the power of community spirit and with the aim of improving the lives of children and young people with cancer, the Tour sets an impressive example of solidarity year after year.
