LEX Partner Cup: Running for a good cause

/in /by

We are pleased to announce the first major fundraiser for Stiftung Juno Kinderkrebshilfe. Our motto “active against childhood cancer” is doubly true here: because every kilometer counts at the nationwide LEX running event #LPC2021. No matter if you run, walk or hike – for every kilometer you cover, 5 cents will be credited to our account. Premium partners of the LEX running experts donate, which means that the participants only care about their fitness and do not have to do anything else. Participation is of course also free of charge!

The campaign will start on April 16, 2021, and every step will count for two weeks!

Interested people can already download the app onto their cell phones: www.lex-events.de/lex-app

We say THANK YOU and are excited to see which distance the brave runners will cover in the end!

Kick-off: Our first fundraising project

/in /by

Defeating childhood cancer – that is our long-term goal. An important component of the therapy is sport. For many years, a positive connection between sport and the fight against childhood cancer has been scientifically proven time and again. Our goal is to implement sports therapy not only as a helpful add-on, but as a permanent component of standard care. In adult cancer treatment, this is already the standard in some subsets. So why not for children and young people too?

The FORTEe research project conducts research on personalized sports therapy and innovative technologies in pediatric oncology and is supported by an EU research program. 16 institutions from 8 different countries are working together for this purpose. We want to further strengthen the existing structures of the project and support research beyond the funds and projects already funded. In particular, the exploration of sports with innovative technology (for example augmented reality) is close to our hearts.

We are happy if you support us in this – contact us for more information or donate directly here.
