The world is upside down – now it’s all about solidarity and cohesion.
The coronavirus affects all of us. We now face new challenges every day. Not everyone is lucky enough to be well provided for. What is important now is that no one is left alone.
We want to help! Together with you, we want to unleash a wave of unity and solidarity to support those who are most affected by the coronavirus.
To make our contribution, we have launched the #WAVEOFUNITY initiative.
The donations for the Red Cross are intended to support voluntary and important relief operations to avert crises.
Our heroes
The Red Cross has been working for weeks to combat the coronavirus and contain its further spread. The full-time staff and volunteers are involved in a variety of ways to support the authorities in the fight against the virus: For example, mobile medical practices and fever measuring stations are deployed and supervised by the Red Cross to strengthen the healthcare system and relieve the burden on hospitals. But the Red Cross’s relief efforts also focus on caring for the elderly and needy during the crisis.
Many volunteers are currently working to help the elderly and those in need during the coronavirus pandemic. This includes, for example, psychosocial support in times of quarantine and physical distancing. Providing the necessary food is also at the heart of the relief efforts: With the help of volunteers, food delivery services are organized to protect the elderly and needy and reduce the risk of infection.
Let’s help these people!

We won’t let them get us down. Only together can we get through this challenging time.
Together we can!
#WAVEOFUNITY is an initiative of FACES magazine. The aim of the non-profit project is to provide immediate support to those most affected by the impact of the coronavirus. The donations are used to support voluntary and important aid campaigns.
We would like to thank our valued partners for supporting our initiative:
*As a small, independent publishing house, we are also fully affected by the coronavirus crisis. Our reserves are small. We therefore have to limit our own donation amount to CHF 5,000. However, we are working feverishly to find more companies to support our campaign with a financial donation. Interested parties can get in touch via waveofunity@faces.ch
