"I am proud that Brno University of Technology has joined this fundraising event for the fourth year. Hospice care makes a very important and sensitive contribution. Our BUT is one of the modern universities that are not only focused on their own internal environment, but actively perceive their surroundings and respond to crucial social issues. BUT expresses this attitude by supporting the Cake for Hospice collection, amongst a range of other activities. However, the university as an institution would not be able to do much on its own if it were not filled with the people who make it up - in this case, our staff and students. So thank you to everyone who took part in the collection. Last but not least, I would also like to thank the organizer of this event for BUT, Lenka Kocová, and the entire team of volunteers who helped make BUT's involvement a reality," said BUT Chancellor Kamil Gregorek, who was at the birth of the charity collaboration.

The cakes for sale at Brno University of Technology were baked by the university canteens, and volunteers from among the students and staff offered them to donors for a financial contribution of 50 CZK at stalls near the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Communication, the Faculty of Business and Management, the tram No. 12 terminus at the Technology Park, and at Björnson's Park near the Faculty of Civil Engineering. The mobile unit also visited the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, the Faculty of Information Technology, the Faculty of Architecture, and the rectorate throughout the day.
Hospice Cake is a traditional fundraiser supporting palliative care, organized annually by the Diocesan Charity of Brno. This year's proceeds will go to help patients at home or in the hospice in Rajhrad. In Brno, the collection managed to raise a total of CZK 584,969, including CZK 105,388 within BUT, which is the highest amount raised at the university.
