Following the enthusiastic response to the first literary evening in Höhenried, a second event took place on May 24, 2024, at the Casino of the German Touring Yacht Club (DTYC) in Tutzing. More than 120 guests accepted the invitation from Prof. Dr. Carl-Peter Bauer, Cura Placida Foundation board member, to attend another benefit evening in support of the Cura Placida Foundation.
Literary scholar Dr. Dirk Heißerer took the audience on an impressive literary journey around Lake Starnberg. With deep knowledge and engaging storytelling, he drew connections between the landscape, literary history, and the remarkable individuals who left their mark on the region.
After the lecture, Dr. Yvonne Princess of Croy and Prof. Dr. Stefan Burdach presented the work of the Cura Placida Foundation. They explained the foundation’s mission to reduce the side effects of cancer treatments in children and sustainably improve their chances of recovery through targeted, individualized therapies.
The evening concluded with a shared dinner and was once again accompanied by a fundraising campaign—making it another successful charity event for Cura Placida.
