JLL’s 11th Real Estate Charity Beach Volleyball Tournament brought together 54 teams and around 2,500 guests, while more than PLN 750,000 was raised in the charity auction for the Polish Humanitarian Action and Women's Rights Centre Foundation.
At JLL’s 11th Real Estate Charity Beach Volleyball Tournament, 54 teams of real estate professionals faced off against each other on the three courts of the Monta Beach Volley Club in Warsaw. In the thrilling final, Savills beat their hosts JLL, while Reesco had the consolation of the tournament’s bronze medal.
The high temperature – which was not only what we could see on thermometers, but also how things were hotting up in the stands – made this year’s tournament an extra special experience. I hope that next year we will meet again to engage in some friendly sporting rivalry for the 12th time in support of those most in need.
Mateusz Bonca, the CEO of JLL Poland
As usual, the main idea behind this year’s tournament was to bring the sector together to support worthy causes. The evening’s charity auction was opened by the tournament’s special guests, both of whom were representatives of the Ukrainian government: deputy minister for European integration Andriy Chesnokov, and Oleksiy Perevezentsev, the state secretary of the ministry of youth and sports. Tamila Shutak, the first secretary of the embassy of Ukraine in Poland, also graced the event with her presence.
As a gesture of solidarity with our neighbours in Ukraine, the funds raised from the entry fees and the charity auction, i.e., PLN 693,500, were donated to Polish Humanitarian Action. And to highlight the importance of diversity, an additional PLN 60,000 was provided for the Women’s Rights Centre Foundation.
We would like to thank you once again for your open hearts, as well as all the cheering and positive emotion that was such a feature of all the volleyball matches. Congratulations to the winners of the tournament and all the bidders.
