Heidelberg Charity combines community commitment with support for health and research.
Making charity something people can experience, rather than simply see: that is exactly what I associate with Heidelberg Charity’s event.
On Monday, 22 September 2025, it will be time again. The next major charity gala will take place at the Heidelberg Congress Center. Guests will include the renowned SAP Symphony Orchestra and world champion swimmer Franziska van Almsick.
The concert supports the Heidelberger Herz-Stiftung, the Heidelberger Stiftung Chirurgie and the Thoraxstiftung Heidelberg. Three strong foundations dedicated to health and research in our region. 🙌
The whole event is being put together by someone I have held in high regard for many years: Winfried Rothermel! A true Heidelberg character whose motto is “There is no such thing as impossible.” I would happily endorse that motto, which also appears on his LinkedIn profile.
Winni is the backbone of many charity events in our region. With his vast network and excellent ideas, he repeatedly makes charity something people can experience as well as see.
Last time, 1,600 people attended. I am curious to see how many supporters will come this time.
A heartfelt thank you to Winni for your commitment and your invitation! ❤️ I am really looking forward to it!
