One gala. One cause.
One night.
The European International Club and Gold Pleasure Taste invite you to an exclusive Charity Gala. An elegant evening at the legendary Baur au Lac in Zurich, bringing together like-minded people who share one thing — the quiet conviction that the right circle changes everything. A night to celebrate, to connect, and to stand behind something bigger than the evening itself.
In aid of Innocence in Danger (IID), a Swiss charity dedicated to protecting children from violence and abuse, the evening features a dedicated fundraising drive. A dinner fundraiser and an extensive tombola give you a real chance to give back, and to become part of an international network you'd rarely find gathered in one room.
Expect fine cuisine, flowing champagne, and pure sophistication. And bring your dancing shoes — Papa DJ from Monaco is opening the dancefloor and carrying the night into the late hours.
Order of the Evening.
From the first glasses of champagne to the last hour on the dancefloor. A night that unfolds act by act.
The Grand Tombola
Look forward to an extensive tombola with hand-picked prizes. A highlight of the evening that brings together excitement, delight and the good cause behind the night.
Papa DJ
MonacoWhen dinner winds down, the second half of the night begins. Papa DJ from Monaco takes over the dancefloor and lets the evening truly come alive. Elegant sets, the right energy, and a night that carries on well into the late hours.
Why we celebrate.
The European International Club is the exclusive international business and lifestyle club, a private members club for people who know that the right circle makes all the difference. But a strong network shows its true worth not in what it holds, rather in what it gives back.
That's why we don't simply celebrate. This charity gala is our promise: an exclusive evening among like-minded people, where a fundraising drive and an extensive tombola become real help. What comes together on the night goes to Innocence in Danger, an organisation that gives children back what was taken from them.
Innocence in Danger protects children around the world and helps them find their way back to a carefree life. What began in 1999 on a UNESCO initiative is today an international movement, with its own chapter here in Switzerland.
In Switzerland, IID stands beside children and their families for years: through prevention, legal support, therapeutic retreats in the Alps and scientific research. From the very first step all the way to recovery.
What has grown from a single idea.
Four paths, one goal.
Prevention & Awareness
Training for children, parents and professionals, so dangers are spotted early.
Legal Support
A team of specialists guides children and families and gives them their voice back.
Healing Retreats
Stays in the Alps with art, equine and music therapy. Space to rebuild trust.
Research
Scientific studies that make prevention sharper and healing measurable.
Homayra Sellier
Nominated by UNESCO in 1999, Homayra Sellier founded Innocence in Danger and grew it into a worldwide movement. Her work has driven real improvements in child protection across several countries.
In 2002 she pioneered the art and equine therapy that is now recognised internationally as effective. As an author and a jury member of international film festivals, she gives children a voice far beyond Switzerland.
