#WestfieldDonauZentrum celebrates #PrideMonth with an LGBTQIA+ flag exhibition 🏳️🌈 Vienna's largest shopping center once again embraced the colors of the rainbow this year and used #PrideMonth to send a strong message of #diversity, #inclusion, and the visibility of LGBTQIA+ issues. 🌈   In collaboration with #TamaraMascara, Austria's most famous drag queen, the center opened an exhibition featuring the flags of the LGBTQIA+ community. Held in the ARENA event space, the exhibition showcased various flags representing the diverse identities within the LGBTQIA+ community. Each flag highlighted a distinct identity or group, symbolizing the vibrant diversity and inclusivity of the community.   Visitors to the shopping and leisure destination had the opportunity to attend the exhibition free of charge during opening hours until June 30, joining Westfield Donau Zentrum in promoting greater diversity and #acceptance in society. The exhibition, which attracted many center visitors as well as people from the community, was a highlight in advocating for diversity and a successful blend of information and entertainment. 🌟🏳️🌈   A heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to making the exhibition and Pride Month at our center so remarkable!   #BetterTogether #Pride #WestfieldDonauZentrum #URW #URWAustria   Katalin Szabó Zsolt Juhasz

Reflecting on Three Days of Community Impact   This past week, our team embarked on a three-day social initiative that left us humbled and inspired.    Our first stop was the bustling Social Market #WestfieldDonauZentrum, where we tackled the essential behind-the-scenes work. From clearing away goods to sizing shelves and meticulous price labeling, every action was a step towards supporting the market’s mission to serve the community.   #Samariterbund “Suppentopf” Campaign: that day was filled with the aromas of hearty meals as we prepared food, then delivered it to various facilities. The highlight was distributing meals to those in need, a reminder of the simple power of a warm dish.   Stem Cell Typing with #RotesKreuz: We assisted in saliva sampling and acquisition, a critical step in matching donors with recipients. The potential to save lives through this campaign was a profound note to end on.   These three days were more than just volunteer work; they were a testament to the spirit of giving and the collective effort to make a difference. We’re grateful for the opportunity to contribute and look forward to many more initiatives like these. #CommunityDay #Wemakethingshappen #createmore #daremore #achievemore #CorporateResponsibility #UnibailRodamcoWestfield
