The idea of helping came from one of the players, Kristýna Vykopalová, who herself spent long weeks in the pediatric oncology department at the Brno University Hospital as a child. Word got around and the entire project was completed last year.
The daring acts caught the eye
Young sportswomen were not afraid to reveal their bodies and took bold photos calendar for 2024. Interest in its purchase exceeded expectations. “We managed to collect an unbelievable 87,000 crowns. We had to use part of this amount, exactly 42 percent, for production costs – printing calendars,” she informed Daily project manager Nikola Zahradníčková.

The remaining amount, equal to 50 thousand crowns, was sent to the account of the Krtek Children’s Oncology Foundation. “I’m very happy that it finally worked out. If it weren’t for two acquaintances, we wouldn’t have made it to the end, that’s where the biggest thanks go. But I appreciate everyone who bought at least one and supported us!” said the manager.
Selfless help deserves a bow
“I also have a lot of respect for the people I approached and who participated in the project. It was a ride that we managed and I’m extremely happy for it,” commented Nikola Zahradníčková, adding in conclusion: “The wish came true, help was provided where it was needed and I’m actually already thinking about what we could do next.”
