Monaco Liver Disorder (MLD) is hosting its third charity pétanque challenge on November 23rd, at the Club Bouliste Monégasque in Cap d’Ail. The event is meant to raise awareness and funds for organ donations, with proceeds supporting children affected by rare liver diseases. 

The day-long tournament, however, will not just be about competitive boules. Participants will also be able to enjoy a gourmet meal prepared by a Grand Cordon d’Or chef of French cuisine, and trophies designed by artist Jordane Saget, represented by Galerie Kamil. The event runs from 9:30am to 4:30pm at the club on Avenue Marquet.

Tickets are priced at €150 per person, which includes entry to the tournament, lunch, and all refreshments throughout the day. With limited places available, organisers are urging interested participants to register early through the HelloAsso platform or by contacting the association directly at contact@mld.mc or on 06 40 62 37 77.

Additional donations are welcomed alongside ticket purchases, with French taxpayers eligible for a 66% tax reduction on charitable contributions.

The Monaco Liver Disorder was established in 2011 and is the only Franco-Monégasque association representing all rare liver diseases in children. The charity supports medical research, promotes organ donation awareness, helps improve paediatric hospital services, and provides support to affected families.

Registration is now open for the event, which combines sport and gastronomy in support of cause that affects families across France and Monaco.
