December 6th, we go for Charity of the Year 2019
The Swiss team of the Internal Audit Department will organize for the first time a charity auction in favour of the Foundation Swiss School for Guide Dogs for the Blind in Allschwil. This charity has been elected by the Credit Suisse employees in Switzerland.
The school for guide dogs in Allschwil has been breeding Labrador retrievers since 1972, which they train to become guide dogs for the blind, assistance dogs, and autism service dogs. The dogs are carefully introduced into the lives of the disabled clients and the teams are provided with lifelong assistance. In addition, the school's social dog teams have been undertaking voluntary assignments for many years. The school for guide dogs aims to help as many people as possible to achieve greater mobility, independence, and quality of life with a well-trained dog.
Important to say: The clients receive the dog free of charge. The costs are partly borne by the Federal Disability Insurance (eidgennössischen Invalidenversicherung - IV). The rest will be covered by various donations (fundraising activity, inheritances and legates).
We need to encourage every employee in our department to actively participate in our campaign (charity auction) to support this year's charity of the year.
