On Friday 15 June 2018, the 3rd edition of the Wear Your Trainers at Work operation took place in Luxembourg, generating more than €100,000 in donations.
This 3rd edition saw strong mobilisation, from both ambassadors and companies. In fact, 28 companies were partners:
• 42 Consulting • Akt One • AFC Benelux • ALD Automotive • Atoz • AXA • Bâtiments moins chers • BioneXtLab • CACEIS Bank • Catella Bank • Chamber of Commerce • Dimension Data • Docler Holding • Econocom • Finexis • Générali Fund Management • Grant Thornton • Hôpitaux Robert Schuman • Jobs.lu • Luther S.A. • OneLife • Paypal • Randstad • Réka • TridentTrust…
The participating companies put in place many initiatives to mobilise as many employees as possible. Several ambassadors and members of the association visited the sites to meet participants and talk about this act of solidarity, which is also a way to raise awareness of health and well-being. This led to awareness-raising actions whose primary goal was achieved: reaching as many people as possible to advance research on leukodystrophies and support families.
The next edition will take place on Thursday 13 June 2019.
