Our actions in Switzerland
Orange sales, sponsored walks, Children’s Rights Day, musical action - our voluntary groups organise many events that encourage the public to help children in need and to support Terre des hommes' work. The choice is yours!
Our street campaigns in Switzerland
Our 2,000 volunteers organise and implement events to raise money for vulnerable children, with the help of a team from our head office. From Lugano to Lausanne and Basel to Chur, they organise more than one hundred events each year, grouped into four main categories:
