It is always difficult to change events. However, as COVID-19 continues to show no signs of calming and Austria has confirmed a country-wide lockdown, Fulbright Austria’s Thank #Fulbright75 –Thanksgiving will only be celebrated online (YouTube livestream embedded below).
These are challenging times for us all, and while there is a lot of uncertainty, we know that we need to adapt fast to our changing reality. Our decision was made out of concern for the entire Fulbright Austria community; we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause.
The Thanksgiving season gives us an occasion to reflect on our good fortune, and Fulbright Austria is truly thankful to all those in our community who, through their donations, provide opportunities for future Austrian and US Fulbrighters during our traditional GivingTuesday drive.
We want to thank you for your understanding, interest, and continued support. We also remain hopeful and look forward to gathering in person again in the near future.
Happy Thanksgiving, stay safe, and #supporteinander!
