How do we support our home community in Switzerland?

People swimming in the lake

Our founder Henri Nestlé understood the power of giving to the community where he found success. Vevey, the founding city of Nestlé, was the place he called home and loved. We are determined to continue this legacy through Nestlé Cares for Communities in our home region Canton de Vaud. This is where we continue to support a multitude of organizations to make a meaningful impact on the local community. Through our three core pillars - disaster relief, food access, and community life - we help make a difference.
