Pro Juventute 2005 stamps in Switzerland
Special Stamps pro juventute

Give every child a chance
Although Switzerland is a wealthy country, the people here are not immune to poverty. The poverty rate of gainfully employed households is over 4.5 percent. A large number of children and young people feel the effects as they do not have the same chances and opportunities as children from wealthy backgrounds. Here, too, with its assistance for individuals and families, pro juventute provides important and efficient support, providing funds, for instance, for a child to attend a school camp or to buy a bicycle to get to school faster. The pro juventute holiday fund gives low-income families the chance to go on holiday for a few days.Gap between rich and poor
The gap between rich and poor is only one aspect of many inequalities. Poor performance at school, appearance or ethnic origin can give rise to hostility and lead to social isolation. So that children and young people do not have to face their cares and fears alone, the telephone help-line 147 with its professional counsellors is available for them 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.Stamps in detail
