Bern Schenkt
What began as a local project by the Global Shapers Community Zurich has grown into a national initiative: Switzerland gives, in which the Global Shapers Community Bern is also part of, gives presents to Asylum seekers in Switzerland, predominantly around Christmas.
By giving presents to people living in asylum centers we help to create an atmosphere of welcome for some of the most marginalised members of our community.
In Spring 2021 we were able to give about Fr. 2,500 worth of gift cards to 190 Asylum Seekers living in 4 Asylum Centers around the city of Bern. For Christmas 2021 we raised an additional 5’000 Fr. for presents.
