💛 Le Festival Melantropia, c’est une idée née d’un moment de vie bouleversant.

Le 15 octobre 2018, la vie de Sarah bascule : elle donne naissance à sa fille et perd sa maman d'un cancer incurable ce même jour.

Ce choc immense devient une force — une envie profonde de transformer la douleur en énergie positive, et de rassembler les gens autour de l’espoir.

De cette histoire est né Melantropia, un festival unique et solidaire qui aura lieu du 4 au 6 septembre 2026 au Parc des Rives à Yverdon-les-Bains. 

Pendant trois jours, la musique, l’humour, les conférences et les animations pour familles s’uniront pour célébrer la vie, la résilience et la solidarité.

🎯 Pourquoi ce projet ?

Melantropia est plus qu’un festival : c’est un élan collectif pour soutenir celles et ceux qui affrontent la maladie.
La totalité des bénéfices sera reversée aux associations suisses ARFEC, OSE Thérapies et la Fondation Francine Delacrétaz engagées dans la lutte contre le cancer.

Notre objectif : créer un rendez-vous culturel marquant qui, au-delà de la fête, apporte une aide concrète et un souffle d’espoir aux familles touchées.

💡 Pourquoi ton don est essentiel MAINTENANT ?

En participant à cette campagne, tu deviendras un acteur essentiel de cette aventure humaine.
Il est la mise de départ qui nous permet de couvrir les frais d'organisation initiaux (logistique, production, sécurité...), de payer les premiers acomptes pour les artistes et de garantir la tenue du festival.
Ces premiers frais s’élèvent à 50 000 CHF.
Sans ton soutien, cette aventure unique ne peut pas démarrer.

👉 Chaque don compte, vraiment, même le plus petit. Ensemble nous pouvons transformer la douleur en lumière, et l’espoir en réalité.
👉 Et si tu ne peux pas contribuer financièrement, tu peux aussi nous aider en partageant largement cette campagne autour de toi : chaque partage est un pas de plus vers le succès.

 👉 Objectif : lancer Melantropia Festival – septembre 2026, à Yverdon-les-Bains.

Sans cette base, le festival ne peut pas démarrer.

💬 Un mot du cœur

«Á travers Melantropia, j’ai envie de transformer l’épreuve en élan d’humanité, de rassembler les gens autour ce qui nous unit : l’amour, la solidarité et l’envie de croire en demain.»

Sarah, fondatrice

🇬🇧 English version

💛 Melantropia Festival was born from a life-changing moment

On October 15th, 2018, Sarah’s life changed forever: she gave birth to her daughter and lost her mother to an incurable cancer on the very same day.
That profound shock became a source of strength: a deep desire to transform pain into positive energy, and to bring people together around hope.

From this story was born Melantropia, a unique and heartfelt festival that will take place from September 4th to 6th, 2026, at the Parc des Rives in Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland.
For three days, music, comedy, conferences, and family activities will come together to celebrate life, resilience, and solidarity.

🎯 Why this project?

Melantropia is more than just a festival: it’s a collective movement to support those facing illness.
All profits will be donated to the Swiss associations ARFEC, OSE Thérapies and the Francine Delacrétaz Foundation, all deeply committed to the fight against cancer.

Our goal is to create a meaningful cultural event that goes beyond celebration: one that provides tangible support and a breath of hope for families affected by the disease.

💡 Why your support matters right now?

By taking part in this campaign, you become an essential part of this human adventure.
Your contribution is the starting spark that allows us to cover the initial organization costs (logistics, production, security...), pay the first deposits for the artists, and secure the festival itself.

These first expenses amount to CHF 50,000.
Without your support, this unique adventure can’t begin.

👉 Every donation truly matters, even the smallest one. Together, we can turn pain into light and hope into reality.
👉 And if you can’t contribute financially, you can still help by sharing this campaign widely: every share brings us one step closer to success.

👉 Goal: launch Melantropia Festival – September 2026, in Yverdon-les-Bains.

Without your support, the festival won’t happen.

💬 A word from the heart

“Through Melantropia, I want to turn hardship into a movement of humanity: to bring people together around what truly unites us: love, solidarity, and the belief in a brighter tomorrow.”
Sarah, Founder
