Swiss Foundation for Sport Assistance
Stiftung Schweizer Sporthilfe (Swiss Foundation for Sport Assistance) is a non-profit organisation and supports performance-oriented sport for talented young athletes in Switzerland. Around 400 athletes are helped per year in the form of individual support contributions, sponsorship, and profit contributions or through awards (Most Promising Young Talent Award and the Soirée Romande). Indirect help through support from projects for the up-and-coming from over 30 sporting associations gives hope to around 2’500 young talents each year. The Swiss Foundation for Sport Assistance generates its financial resources exclusively through fundraising from the wider public and from businesses. For the youth, sport and Switzerland!
