UBS has been committed to charitable causes for over 25 years, including with the UBS Optimus Foundation, the UBS Philanthropy Foundation and as a pioneer in corporate volunteering. “The need to do good is deeply rooted in people,” says Curdin Duschletta, Head of Social Impact & Philanthropy Switzerland at UBS. “Some want to get things moving during their lifetime. Others want to make a positive impact with their legacy.” UBS Benefizia Suisse is a simple and direct way to support impactful projects run by various organizations. Interested parties can either make a general donation or choose one of the three thematic portfolios – equal opportunities, environment & climate or social affairs. A team of experts allocates the donations to the projects that need them most urgently.
