FC Blau-Weiß Linz sets a good example
Professional sport is also setting an example: FC Blau-Weiß Linz is actively supporting the campaign. On 21 June, the club is hosting a day of action for the benefit of Upper Austrian Cancer Aid at the "Tante Kaethe" in Linz.

This commitment is not an isolated case: the organisation has been committed to inclusion, equality and sustainability for years - and shows how sport can take on social responsibility.
