Transparent achievement.

Transparent, measurable, long-term impact and trusted quality: these are the qualities that various public institutions such as the federal government, cantons, cities and lottery funds value in us and have therefore supported our projects for many years.
  • Impact

    Measurable success.

    Your aim is to achieve the greatest possible impact with your contribution. This is exactly where we can help you. Our development cooperation and emergency aid projects generate measurable impact in some of the most neglected areas of the world.

  • Quality

    Reliable partner.

    ZEWO seal of approval, ISO certification, CHS Alliance label - they all confirm the quality of our fundraising and use of funds. As a reliable partner in development cooperation, we have received funds from the SDC via the KoGe cooperation association for many years.

  • Dependability

    Trusted partner.

    We are valued as a reliable partner not only in the project countries but also by foundations, companies, and institutions. We keep our word and support you in your important work.

Development cooperation

With a comprehensive view.

We evaluate our development cooperation projects in the areas of livelihoods, education, health, and peace by their lasting impact. To achieve this, we focus on long-term projects that take a comprehensive view of the local population’s living conditions. Long-standing collaboration with well-established local partner organizations, who know the people and circumstances firsthand, has proven to be key to success.

Emergency aid

Quick and straightforward.

Crises and disasters everywhere we look: floods, wars, earthquakes, ethnic cleansing, droughts. Where there is urgent need, we provide quick and straightforward assistance. Together with our international and local partners, we support efforts during emergencies to lay the groundwork for a self-determined future and to strengthen resilience for future crises.

Process

Effortless collaboration.

We have decades of experience not only in working with local partner organizations but also in successful and straightforward collaboration with institutions throughout the entire project duration.
