Caritas food coupons provide essential support during pandemic

The Swiss Solidarity, which has raised more than CHF17 million ($17.7 million) for deprived sections of society during the coronavirus pandemic, will conclude with a National Solidarity Day on April 16.

In addition to food aid for the homeless or “working poor”, victims of domestic violence will also be supported.

Contributions to the campaign can be made via the website www.glueckskette.ch or the postal account 10-15000-6, using the reference “Coronavirus”. People who cannot donate via these two platforms can register their donation over the telephone number 0800 87 07 07.
