Assistance for Victim Support Switzerland

08.12.2025

With Victim Support Switzerland, we are promoting a project in 2025 that provides quick and targeted support for victims of crime and their relatives. Our contribution is part of the “Social engagement” priority and helps to strengthen social welfare and support people in stressful situations.

 

The “Social engagement” priority is anchored in our sustainability strategy. Each year, we make contributions to projects that offer support to people in vulnerable situations as part of this. 

Victim Support Switzerland was chosen as one of the projects for 2025, an organisation dedicated to providing support where it is urgently needed. It assists victims of incidents in legal, psychological, social, material and medical matters. The aim is to help quickly after a serious event and to open up new perspectives that provide security and assurance. 


 

An increasing need for support 

This mission is more important than ever. Across Switzerland, the number of people seeking advice is increasing and the situations are varied. Whether domestic violence, threats or bodily harm, qualified bodies that intercept, inform and support those affected make a direct contribution to social welfare and greater social awareness. 

To broaden the impact of our contribution, we have offered assistance to four regional offices of the organisation: Victim Support Bern, LAVI Genève, LAVI Vaud and the Care Team Ticino. Our support then reaches people in all language regions, close to their day-to-day lives and needs. 

With this commitment, we are making a contribution to social welfare and the community and are thankful for making this possible together. Further information on the “Social engagement” priority can be found on our Sustainability page.
