Golden Special Editions Against Pediatric Cancer
Throughout the month of September, the mountains inside our glasses will be adorned with gold to support the fight against pediatric cancer. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Zoé4life in French-speaking Switzerland and KinderKrebshilfe Schweiz in German-speaking Switzerland.
For each glass sold, 2 CHF are donated to two associations in Switzerland.
Founded in 2013 in memory of Zoé, a little girl who battled neuroblastoma, Zoé4life supports families affected by childhood cancer, funds research, raises public awareness, and works to improve the quality of life of children living with cancer in French-speaking Switzerland. Over the years, the foundation has contributed more than 3 million Swiss francs to advancing pediatric oncology research. Learn more

The still little-known golden ribbon
Since 2012, September has been marked as Gold September, the international month for childhood cancer awareness. Paediatric oncology remains underfunded, and awareness limited.
Each year, about 400,000 cases are diagnosed worldwide, including 36,000 in Europe and 350 in Switzerland. Despite a high survival rate, a child still dies every week in Switzerland.
Childhood cancer is the leading cause of disease-related death in children under 15 in our country. Some forms still have no cure, highlighting the urgent need for greater research and awareness.
The smallest actions can bring hope and strength to those who need it most.
This September shine for a cause!
