Your donations make a real difference
PluSport Disability Sports Switzerland has held the seal of the Zewo charity monitoring organisation for decades now. Zewo audits PluSport regularly, which means you can be sure your donation is used properly.
- We use your donations for projects and programmes in Switzerland
- Your donation goes to a monitored non-profit organisation
- All donations are used to support disability sports
Every donation is welcome and very much appreciated. Your donations help people with various disabilities become better integrated into society and you can support disabled athletes and sport.
How does PluSport collect donations?
As an umbrella organisation, we regularly collect donations from private individuals and SMEs in Switzerland. This is done via postal mailings or telephone campaigns. We always phone with a visible telephone number (not «unknown»). PluSport is a Zewo-certified organisation and complies with its strict guidelines. If you would like to support PluSport and want to be sure that the money goes to the right place, you will find all the details on this website. Zewo also warns and advises against donations to various organisations. You can find this information here. PluSport does not make collections at doorsteps or on the street. Unfortunately, there are people who collect donations using the logos of non-profit organisations and fake IDs. Never pay in cash, but ask for a payment slip or an IBAN number. This way you can check whether your donation is really going to the organisation you have chosen.

The Zewo seal for non-profit organisations
ZEWO (Central Office for Charitable Organisations) awards its seal to charitable and non-profit organisations in Switzerland that meet ZEWO’s stringent requirements regarding accounting practices, altruism and transparency.
Donations made to non-profits are tax deductible in most cantons. You’ll find an overview of the above-mentioned requirements at the ZEWO website.
What will my donation be used for?
Your donation or membership fee will be used to support people with disabilities in Switzerland. Among other things, your donation will enable the establishment and operation of structures and programmes that allow people with disabilities to train and practice in sport clubs for the disabled, attend sport camps and participate in competitive sports. Your donation will also help support young disabled athletes by safeguarding the existence of sport clubs, creating new sports programmes for children and teenagers in particular and providing training for future directors of disability sports programmes. Further information on how we use donations can be found in our Annual Report.
How much should I donate?
Every donation counts, and individuals can decide for themselves how much they wish to donate. Donations can also be made online. Membership fees start at CHF 60. View the member application forms.
Will I receive confirmation of my donation for use with my tax return and, if so, when?
Donation confirmation forms are sent out in January of the year after the donation is made. Individuals who make donations can request a donation confirmation form by sending an e-mail to mailbox(at)plusport.ch.
