Donations & support
SwissCommunity is a non-profit organisation. Many of its offers and services are provided at low cost or even free of charge. It is your donations that make this possible.
Would you like to know how your donation is being spent? You can have an influence and make a difference in the following areas.
Connecting young people with their homeland
Offering adventure-packed summer and winter camps, our Youth Service enables 15-18 year olds to strengthen their relationship with Switzerland. These camps result in enriching friendships between the young Swiss Abroad who come together from all over the world. The Youth Service intentionally keeps the costs of participation low and offers discounts for the financially disadvantaged. The Youth Service is only able to do this because it is supported by donations.

Securing the future of "Swiss Review"
Competent and independent coverage of events in Switzerland, tailored to the needs of the readers of the “Fifth Switzerland”: this is what “Swiss Review” and its experienced editorial team provide. By making a donation to “Swiss Review”, you support valuable and independent quality journalism. As printing and postage costs are very high, we are particularly grateful to receive donations from those who value the print edition.

Ensuring quality advice and representation
Our legal service supports both those who are emigrating and expatriates with free advice. In addition, we advocate for the needs of the Swiss Abroad in parliament: a commitment that reflects our identity as a recognised charitable organisation. You can support this work with a donation or a legacy.
