This demonstration of solidarity under the slogan “together and connected” particularly surprised and moved our organisers. Although they could not gather for the week-end at La Coque, thousands of people continued to demonstrate their support for a cause which unanimously raises awareness. As proof, no less than 423 teams and 10,610 people joined forces for the occasion. But more than the amount of effort and the considerable distances travelled, it was the generosity of the participants which created the real surprise. With €614,000 raised, the funds donated almost equalled the record for the event in 2019!

This incredible weekend, marked by a warm message from the Grand Duchess and the Prime Minister has, once again, convinced those affected, their family and friends, and all those involved one way or another in this struggle, that they do not fight alone and that there are always ways in which assistance can be provided.

Bâloise Assurances Luxembourg has supported the Relais pour la Vie since its creation in 2006 and has once again honoured the cause through its employees, who are always generous with their efforts and always participate in this symbolic event. This year, our 52 participants - alone or with their family and friends - walked, cycled or ran more than 600 kilometres, for more than 85 hours, in Luxembourg, France, Belgium and Germany!

As a partner, we were honoured to present the Trophée de l’Espoir to the team from the Lycée Technique du Centre in the ‘Schools’ category and our Human Resources Manager, Laurence Fransen, delivered a message of support during the candle-lit ceremony.
The company raised nearly €17,000 in annual support, registrations, and donations.

We thank our colleagues for their commitment, and all the participants who made the Relais pour la Vie 2021 this great success and, once again, we show our full support for all the people who work every day in research and development to support people with cancer as well as their family and friends. We look forward to seeing you next year and remind you that you can make a donation to the Fondation Cancer at any time.

See you again in 2022!
