Schweizer Berghilfe has set itself the goal of supporting projects that create jobs and added value in mountain regions. In doing so, the

counteracts emigration and ensures that mountain regions remain vibrant in the future.

With regular donations, we want to indirectly give back some of our success to the Swiss population. The success that we also owe to the Swiss population. People who like our genuinely Swiss fashion label and therefore become our customers.

The financial success of Landjäger.ch is due to the low costs of administration and distribution, despite low margins. We don't have a large administrative apparatus or separate buildings that cost a lot of money. Our customers also help us to avoid defaults and bad debt losses by making advance payments.

Although Landjäger.ch was only launched a few months ago, we have already made our first substantial donation. Through a project donation, we are directly helping a family of nine with this project:

Store creates a future for a family of nine

In this project, Berghilfe is supporting a large family who can no longer make a living from their farm alone. This is why the creative mountain farmer has been successfully running her own store with paper-cutting work for years. Due to the scarce income from farming, she now wants to expand this sideline. However, the current premises are far too small for this. A former inn is now to be converted and renovated into a store and event venue. 

In future, not only will paper-cutting work be produced, exhibited and sold there, but courses and events will also be able to take place. This could even create jobs and attract visitors to the village. But first the house has to be rebuilt and renovated. However, the mountain farmers cannot fully finance this investment from their own resources. The support from Berghilfe gives the large Toggenburg family a secure perspective for the future.
