Swiss Relief - Schweiz hilft

The association aims to provide holistic assistance to people in need in an exclusively non-profit and charitable manner. In the event of disasters, rapid and efficient assistance should enable victims to survive; subsequently, Swiss Relief - Switzerland helps aims to achieve a professional reconstruction in the medium and long term. Swiss Relief - Switzerland helps also aims to provide development aid, i.e. development cooperation and direct material assistance to endangered, socially disadvantaged or impoverished people, as well as to refugees, in all countries of the world. Through suitable measures and support, these individuals should be helped to establish and secure a basis for existence for themselves and their family members. Through such holistic assistance, the situation of the people should be fundamentally improved. The association can cooperate with other aid organizations and state or private development organizations with the same or similar purpose.
