FOUNDATION NIGHT 2027 · SATURDAY, MARCH 13

FAWCO Biennial Conference · Heidelberg, Germany

Get ready to turn back the clock as we celebrate 60 years of the FAWCO Foundation! Founded in 1967, the Foundation has spent six decades bringing women together to make a difference through philanthropy, friendship, and a shared commitment to creating positive change.

This year's Foundation Night, Hip & Happening, brings a little flower power to Heidelberg for an evening of celebration, connection, and giving back. From exciting auctions to opportunities to support the Foundation's programs, we'll celebrate how far we've come and the impact we can make together.

From the tailored elegance of the early 1960s to bold Mod fashions and the free-spirited flower power of 1967, there's plenty of inspiration for your Foundation Night look!

Join the costume contest with your favorite interpretation of 1960s style, go all out with a groovy ensemble, or simply add a playful retro accessory.

There's no strict dress code, and costumes are entirely optional. Wear whatever makes you feel comfortable and ready to celebrate. The most important thing is that you come and enjoy the evening!

Find something you love and make a difference while you're at it!

Our Foundation Night Silent Auction brings together a wonderful selection of items and experiences, generously donated by members and supporters of the FAWCO community.

Bidding takes place online through OneCause, so you don't need to be in Heidelberg to participate—or to win! The auction runs through dinner on Saturday, March 13.

The excitement continues with our Live Auction. From memorable getaways to extraordinary experiences, our auction lots offer the chance to discover something special while supporting the FAWCO Foundation.

You can still participate by submitting a sealed bid. Email your highest bid, the item or destination you're bidding on, and your name to sealedbids@fawcofoundation.org.
