Sustainability Week 2022
Your donation for a healthy society
The second Credit Suisse Sustainability Week (CSSW), taking place October 3-7, brings together clients and colleagues alike in a global, interactive experience that seeks to inspire, engage and promote action for a more sustainable world. As a Credit Suisse employee, you have the opportunity to participate in a wide range of activities, including participation in virtual expert events, learning challenges, and regional engagement opportunities to help increase social and environmental sustainability. Among many other initiatives, donate here to help Credit Suisse’s partner organization, the Swiss Red Cross pursue its important mission.
The Swiss Red Cross (SRC) is the largest humanitarian organization in Switzerland with 61,000 volunteers and 500,000 members.
The main objectives of the SRC are the protection of life, health and human dignity. The SRC includes 24 cantonal associations and five rescue organizations. The SRC is the second largest private education provider in Switzerland, offering around 14,500 courses in the areas of emergency aid and rescue, health and integration, with around 170,000 course participants.
The SRC is part of the worldwide Red Cross movement. In addition to its well-known activities abroad (active in around 30 countries), such as disaster relief, the SRC is also very active at national level.
