Doing good together: When you use the Benevita app, in addition to the points you can redeem for generous discounts on your premiums, you also receive community coins that you can pool with those of other users to support charitable projects.
Hiking is a great way to enjoy the outdoors and improve your health. Although Switzerland has excellent public transport services, there are mountainous regions that lack connections. With your Benevita community coins, you are helping the Bus alpin association to bridge these gaps and promoting environmentally friendly travel and sustainable economic development in the regions.

A spinal cord injury changes lives in an instant – for the person affected and for their loved ones. With your community coins from SWICA Benevita, you can help the Swiss Paraplegic Foundation to provide holistic support for people with spinal cord injuries: from primary care at the scene of an accident to rehabilitation and lifelong support in their everyday lives.
The Swiss Sports Aid Foundation (Stiftung Schweizer Sporthilfe) helps fulfil the dreams of more than 1200 athletes, from emerging talents to gold medallists like figure skater Lukas Britschgi. And you can get involved by supporting the winners of tomorrow with your SWICA Benevita community coins. You can literally turn your community coin into gold.
6600 diagnoses and 1400 deaths per year. Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women in Switzerland, making early detection – which Pink Ribbon Schweiz is committed to improving – all the more important. Your SWICA Benevita community coins support the charitable organisation's effective awareness projects.
Having dreams – and fulfilling them for yourself and for others – is one of the most formative and special experiences in life. With your SWICA Benevita community coins, you're supporting the charitable organisation A Million Dreams, which is on a mission to fulfil the dreams of disadvantaged people in Switzerland.
One in seven people experiences hearing loss within their lifetime. This has serious consequences, both physical and psychological. With your SWICA Benevita community coins, you're helping to support Pro Audito, Switzerland's leading point of contact for people with hearing loss, to support those affected in their daily lives and to improve access to hearing aids.
Achieve something valuable together: your Benevita community coins can help WWF to protect native wild bees. These busy insects are essential for the environment and for us, but sadly most species are under threat. Find out how your donation can make a difference. This project is now closed. A total of 3'837.68 francs was donated by 9'499 Benevita users – thank you.
Salmon were once native to Switzerland, but died out here in the 1960s. Pollution, construction and power plants prevented them from migrating along the Rhine. But the good news is that they are about to make a comeback. With SWICA Benevita community coins, we are supporting WWF's efforts to return salmon to Switzerland.
Glacier loss is one of the most tangible signs of climate change. Their disappearance is not merely a blow to the soul; less ice in the mountains has a direct impact on humankind and nature. You can use Benevita community coins to support WWF’s measures to preserve Alpine glaciers.
Climate change not only affects people and animals, but is also placing our forests in a precarious position, with coniferous trees such as the native spruce being hit particularly hard by the changing conditions. One tree, however, is demonstrating its robust nature: the silver fir. You can use Benevita community coins to help WWF plant and maintain new fir stocks in Switzerland.
Peatlands cover only three per cent of the land surface of the planet but store around twice as much carbon as all the forests put together, as well as being home to a large number of specialised plant and animal species. As a result of being destroyed and drained by humans, peatlands aren't just getting smaller and smaller. They're also emitting huge amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2), which they previously stored in their biomass. Your Benevita community coins can help WWF to protect and enhance Swiss peatlands.
