CFL Mobility has announced that, for about eight weeks, two electric Mini cars from FLEX will be collecting funds for Fondation EME, the amount being later used to organise private concerts in hospitals and nursing homes.

Since Friday 14 April 2023, two electric minis from FLEX have been on the road in Luxembourg as “Charity Cars” and will continue to serve this purpose until mid-June. The mission of these cars is recognisable due to their individual branding: they are driving in partnership between CFL Mobility and Fondation EME. The campaign will donate the entire sum of revenue generated by car-sharing customers to Fondation EME.

"We are very happy to be able to work with Fondation EME. With its integrative, musical, and social projects, it addresses exactly what we want to enable our customers to do: each of our customers can choose one of the two cars specifically and, in addition to the car-sharing principle, have a positive effect on the environment and our society with their ride. Sharing to have more together is a model way to reflect the principle of sharing," explained Pit Reiter, CEO of CFL Mobility.

Sarah Bergdoll, General Coordinator of Fondation EME, added: "We look forward to a great response from FLEX customers for our project offering of being able to bring live concerts to hospitals." The already established music programme has held over 2,000 concerts in hospitals, paediatric departments and nursing homes since its launch in 2009. These are played by various ensembles and groups of professional musicians, some of whom are from the Luxembourg Philharmonic Orchestra.

The donation status will be communicated on www.flex.lu and the social media channels of FLEX and Fondation EME.

CFL Mobility launched the “FLEX Charity Car” project in 2022 to support humanitarian, social and sustainable projects, working together with selected partner organisations.
