Local charities
Local charities
We support local charities near Swiss Re locations that promote climate and health resilience through our employee-driven Charity of the Year programme. Charites of the Year is an employee led initiative, with Philanthropy Committees (voluntary group of Swiss Re colleagues passionate about community giving), choosing opportunities that resonate with the location, volunteering with time and skills, and Foundation supporting the causes with financial support. Capitalising on our opportunity as part of Swiss Re, we also leverage the dedication and know-how of Swiss Re employees by engaging them as volunteers.
Swiss Re employees give their time to these local causes on Community Days and donate to fundraising drives for these worthy organisations and other Foundation partners.
