The Avolta duty-free shops at Zurich Airport are committed to social responsibility: by purchasing a bottle of Swiss mineral water for CHF 2.50, passengers can do something good at the same time.
For every bottle sold, 50 cents goes to a non-profit organization. In the second half of 2024, the Wisli Foundation was supported with proceeds of CHF 224. The foundation is committed to the inclusion of people with mental disabilities and offers various programs to promote their participation in society.
From January to June 2025, the donation will benefit the Swiss Multiple Sclerosis Society, which offers support in all areas of life to around 18.000 sufferers in Switzerland. The charity water project was launched in 2014 by Zurich Airport AG and Avolta and has supported numerous organizations since then. Donations are collected for a period of six months and then passed on to aid organizations.
The Wisli Foundation was already the tenth organization to benefit from this initiative. Previous recipients include the Children's Hospital Zurich, the RgZ Foundation and the Pfarrer Sieber Foundation. The campaign relies on the combination of simple consumption and social responsibility to support charitable causes.
