Dear Parents, 


The Dinner Dance at Hotel Matild was truly A Night to Remember! Read on for more highlights from this unforgettable evening.

The PTA Charity Dinner Dance 2025!

 3

 

This year's BISB Charity Dinner Dance was incredible! Set in the Matild Palace, thanks to our partner Synergy who made it possible for us to host an event of this calibre! 

The cocktail reception was followed by a Parisian Fashion Show by Maison Privé and an amazing dinner prepared by award winning Spago Chef Istvan Szantó. Our meal ended on sweet note with the taste of Cloud 9 ice cream as the music by JUSTShowband  led almost all the guests to the dance floor until the end of the evening!

Thank you also to all the sponsors and successful bidders who helped us raise 7.5 Million Huf for the Igazgyongy Foundation (see below letter from Nora L Ritok ) and an andditional  500,000 Huf for student charities! We thank you wholeheartedly for helping support our charitable causes!

This event would not have been possible without the generous support of Tamara Liluashvili, Julia Kulish, Judit Orban, Tanja Jaser, Andrea Ainsworth, Kandra Chaudhry, Petra Puskas, Lissa Berlouis, Mihaly kasos as well as Miklos Kispal, Orsolya Csollak, Miki Matrai.

And a huge thank you to PTA Events Manager, Sophia Verykios, who went above and beyond to make the impossible possible and create a truly unforgettable night! 

Finally please see below the Raffle Winners. Prizes can be be collected from the PTA Ticket Desk in the Atrium across from Reception at drop-off and pick up times until Wednesday 9th April.

 

A Message of Thanks from Igazgyöngy Foundation

Dear Supporters!

I would like to express my immerse gratitude for the incredible support we have experienced again from you on the occasion of the charity gala.

Thanks to the organisers and supporters as well, who contributed an incredible amount, a total of 7.5 million forints, to the summer camp program of the Igazgyöngy Foundation in Surány.

From this we will continue our work in the summer camp Surány. Special thanks to the organisers, especially Sophia Verykios and Janos Strohmayer for their outstanding attention.

Children who wouldn't have the opportunity for such an experience will be able to attend this camp. At times like these, the impact of our efforts to break the cycle of social deprivation, which repeats across generations, is multiplied. 

 

Thank you for understanding and feeling the message of our work: we work so that every child can become what they could be.

Thank you very much!

Best regards:

Nóra L. Ritók, founder of the Igazgöngy Alapítvány
