Social commitment
Swiss Post supports numerous foundations and charitable organizations, and is particularly committed to helping children and young people.
Playing the role of Santa Claus, Swiss Post answered 18,386 children's letters and delighted the children with a small gift.
Through the joint work of Swiss Post, the broadcaster SRG SSR and the Swiss Red Cross, people in need in Switzerland and eastern Europe received a Christmas gift. Swiss Post sent 73,000 parcels free of charge.
Swiss Post supports both of these foundations with the surcharge on special stamps.
In support of the national mobile phone collection campaign run by Swisscom Mobile Aid, Swiss Post produced collection boxes for mobile phones and provided them to schools, communities and large companies. It also took care of the return shipments.
Swiss Post is a partner of the education initiative “Filme für die Erde”, an organization dedicated to promoting films about the environment and sustainability, allowing Swiss Post employees to borrow a wide range of nature documentaries. A list of film titles is available on the Swiss Post intranet.
