CHF 16'500.- donated

Creating opportunities together

Yesterday, we had the pleasure of donating CHF 16,500 to the IPT Foundation.

The foundation supports people who face major hurdles returning to the job market after losing their employment – often due to health issues, limited education or language barriers. IPT offers hands-on, personalised support to help them build lasting perspectives.

A big thank-you to all our guests: your Charity Meal purchases made this donation possible. Together, we’re creating real opportunities.

We did it again! Swiss HR Award 2025 🏆

Our project Arbeitszeugnis 2.0 was awarded with the Swiss HR Award 2025 in the Wild Card category – developed as part of the Vereins Vision Arbeitszeugnis.

Staff Party 2025

90s Retro Revolution

On March 18, it was time again – every three years, we throw our legendary Staff Party, and this time, we went full 90s! Nearly 600 team members from all our locations came together for a day packed with unforgettable moments.

From nostalgic throwbacks with old photos and videos to dance-offs, costume contests, delicious food stalls, karaoke, and a full-blown disco – we laughed, chatted, sang, and just had a blast. But the best part? Seeing so many familiar and new faces, getting to know each other, and truly feeling the FWG spirit.

In the middle of our fast-paced, high-energy workdays, these moments are what make it all special. Just having an incredible time together – and we’re already counting down to the next one! 💜🚀

Together Against Poverty and Food Waste

Yesterday, we had the privilege of donating CHF 22'000 to the Stiftung Schweizer Tafel.

This foundation rescues surplus yet perfectly good food and distributes it to those in need and social institutions. In doing so, they reduce food waste while providing vital support to our community.

A heartfelt thank you to our guests – your support through purchasing our Charity Meals made this donation possible. Together, we’re making a difference!
