The goal: everyone in Switzerland should have access to digitalisation - regardless of their income. But wLw does more than just make laptops fit for second use. The association raises awareness of this important topic through targeted educational work and awareness-raising. <\/span><\/p>\n<p data-uniq-id=\"fypxt\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-wsvbw\" class=\"brz-css-fkrdg\"><strong class=\"brz-cp-color1\"> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-uniq-id=\"artom\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-wfugg\" class=\"brz-css-mjaid\"><strong class=\"brz-cp-color1\">Dear wLw team! It's been almost five years since you were one of the winners of the Swiss Sustainability Challenge. What has happened so far? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-runda\" data-uniq-id=\"bzfid\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-sttas\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p data-uniq-id=\"ulgye\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-pskto\" class=\"brz-lh-xs-1_8 brz-lh-sm-1_8 brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-defnr\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">On 1 April 2025, our association celebrates its 5th anniversary. We also have a lot to celebrate, as our organisation has grown from the vision of a single person into a large NPO that has already made a lasting difference in Switzerland and created countless new prospects. Over 15,000 laptops have been distributed to households affected by poverty. Around half of these devices reached apprentices who would otherwise not be able to afford important basic equipment. Today, we work with over half of all Swiss municipalities, numerous cantonal migration and integration offices and aid organisations to distribute laptops in a targeted manner.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"brz-css-syvto brz-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"brz-rich-text brz-rich-text__custom brz-css-axowd\" data-custom-id=\"fpzfdplmxgllnnttmqfuiclnsqmpheysypcf\">\n<div>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-klndk\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-pvshq\" data-uniq-id=\"ixhmq\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">The operational team now consists of eight employees (7.8 FTE) and two trainees. In the off-season, an average of 50 laptops are shipped throughout Switzerland every week. In the summer months, up to 200 devices are sent out each week. Our organisation is now also certified for clean data destruction, which is boosting the confidence of more and more companies. Donating devices to wLw now also saves a lot of money, as these data erasures are free of charge for the donors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-hnbla\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-dthfi\" data-uniq-id=\"oyecd\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-rgmkp\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-xlaza\" data-uniq-id=\"umlhh\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">But there is still work to be done, because the demand is still huge. Anyone who doesn't have a digital tool today must reckon with serious consequences in everyday life. For example, it is now impossible to attend classes at a vocational school, write job applications at home or even process and manage everyday documents. Although our organisation is not political, our work has also had a major impact on social policy. The social welfare system in Switzerland is permeated by federalism and is therefore not equally fair everywhere. Those who are poor are treated differently depending on the canton, region and, in some cases, the municipality: Especially with regard to support for simple hardware equipment. So-called discretionary powers unfortunately still decide far too often whether someone receives funding for a simple laptop or not. Here we work closely with SKOS, which acts as an important hub and link between the partners in the social welfare system. Unfortunately, we continue to receive far too little support from politicians - whether at national or cantonal level. Our organisation is still completely self-financed. We receive a contribution towards expenses for every laptop we distribute. This accounts for around 95% of our total income. This is risk financing, which should no longer be the case for an aid organisation of our size. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-srzjs\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-qurka\" data-uniq-id=\"pmgmb\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-psfso\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-ztuhg\" data-uniq-id=\"irthd\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">However, we will not be put off by these unresolved issues. Following the approach \u2018Don't hate the player, hate the game\u2019, we will continue with the approach that has already brought us a long way: Actions instead of words!  <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-nwevz\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-pyban\" data-uniq-id=\"hjwzs\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-bfzou\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-owrbj\" data-uniq-id=\"qevqe\"><strong class=\"brz-cp-color1\">To what extent did the Swiss Sustainability Challenge help you and support you on your journey?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-ygdws\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-nvmap\" data-uniq-id=\"xidyf\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-ychnz\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-hhbly\" data-uniq-id=\"irjms\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">Second place at the SSSC gave us a bit of publicity, but the extent of this was limited. We received the prize money at a time when we were very grateful for every franc. This financial boost allowed us to procure important replacement equipment and to carry the modest workload in the early days with a little less risk - which was really important.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-wwedl\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-uiiyk\" data-uniq-id=\"mchko\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-whwqu\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-zjocp\" data-uniq-id=\"gwzra\"><strong class=\"brz-cp-color1\">What are your plans for the future and what's next?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-iwhuo\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-wzvgv\" data-uniq-id=\"orpbi\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">We are currently reaching the limits of our partnerships with municipalities. The aforementioned federalism is increasingly hampering our growth. It is therefore time to critically scrutinise our approach via social services. Alternative approaches are currently being evaluated, for example through self-declarations. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-qxnda\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-ixoxt\" data-uniq-id=\"ijecy\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">However, this major operational change is linked to various major changes for the operational team: On the one hand, we would have to adapt to measuring poverty levels ourselves in a targeted manner in the event of a change, and we would have to expect a significantly higher volume of enquiries. Here too, the key question will be whether we can organise enough equipment to do this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-jznjk\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-vglsa\" data-uniq-id=\"xyroh\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-oyvln\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-xmzrb\" data-uniq-id=\"wlmgn\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">The next five years will therefore again be full of uncertainties, but our purpose is driving us forward. We know that our organisation closes an important gap in digital participation that cannot be closed on a large scale in other ways. And knowing that many families affected by poverty, apprentices and, in a broader context, the economy are counting on our work gives us courage. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-ymkoz\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-ctrbr\" data-uniq-id=\"yrxqb\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-natge\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-gwcep\" data-uniq-id=\"msssv\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">We hope that we will also receive more support at a political level in the next five years - because political support is crucial now: with laptops, financial support or a network that gives us access to the two aforementioned points. If this does not happen, our work for society will continue to be more difficult than it should be. Because anyone who supports our work is committed to a digitally inclusive Switzerland that supports circular principles and knows how important basic digital skills are in order to be able to participate in today's working world. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-tgltc\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-iioio\" data-uniq-id=\"bglee\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">What we know: If our organisation fails in the next five years, it will not be because our work is not being carried out with meaningful resources, but because the importance of digital inclusion is simply not being prioritised. We will do everything we can to ensure that this does not happen and are confident that we will succeed. Not alone, but with other players who understand the importance of our mission. Our work must become more tangible and visible. We must also clearly demonstrate the consequences of ignoring our work. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-vuvqp\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-pemky\" data-uniq-id=\"nancg\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-zpcfe\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-xeoyb\" data-uniq-id=\"muaxy\"><strong class=\"brz-cp-color1\">What advice would you give SSC participants?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-xs-1_8 brz-lh-sm-1_8 brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-xs-300 brz-fw-sm-300 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-vcvpr\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-zrhpw\" data-uniq-id=\"bkfez\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">Remain self-critical, avoid administrative overheads (especially in the early days) and constantly scrutinise your approach. If you rest on your laurels, you won't make any kilometres. It was precisely this mindset that made our association so big and enabled it to achieve an impact that probably no other self-financed organisation has achieved in the last five years: with a clearly measurable added value for the whole of Switzerland, whose success not only speaks for itself in figures, but which has also created many digital connections, moments of hope and thus also perspectives. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"brz-wrapper-clone brz-css-uxaqa\">\n<div class=\"brz-d-xs-flex brz-flex-xs-wrap brz-css-wkjrm\">\n<div

Wir haben in den ersten 3 Monaten bereits \u00fcber 500 Produkte in der Schweiz verkauft und das Feedback der Fischer ist hervorragend, denn sie verstehen die Problematik und fangen mit unseren nachhaltigen K\u00f6dern genauso viele Fische wie bisher. Ab Juni kann man unsere K\u00f6der auch in Deutschland beziehen. Diese werden ebenfalls lokal produziert und verschickt. Capt\u2019n Greenfin hat zusammen mit der Innosuisse und der FHNW ein Forschungsprojekt i.H.v. 260&#8217;000 CHF ins Leben gerufen, um die Greenfin-Materialien zu perfektionieren und weitere K\u00f6derarten nachhaltig zu revolutionieren.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_8 brz-lh-xs-im-1_8 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-qicuy\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-css-vjpal\"><strong class=\"brz-cp-color1\">To what extent did the Swiss Sustainability Challenge help you and support you on your journey? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-xs-im-1_8 brz-lh-sm-im-1_8 brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-css-vmjtw\"><strong class=\"brz-cp-color1\"> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-lh-xs-im-1_8 brz-lh-sm-im-1_8 brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-css-zttbb\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">Capt'n Greenfin is perceived as a sustainable and promising Swiss start-up.

Interestingly, this term is rarely used today; most people talk about an \"ethical motivation\". However, I find that it is precisely the decided altruism that defines sustainable entrepreneurs. If people act in this spirit as sustainable entrepreneurs, they should be aware that in a capitalist economic system they will at best be greeted by headshaking, at worst with resistance: running a business and not wanting to make as much money as one could theoretically get out of it is not easy to convey. Therefore, I advise on the one hand to have a \"thick skin\" and on the other hand to look carefully at the quite conventional techniques and concepts of business administration and then to use them in such a way that one can bring about as much benefit as possible with one's own project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_6 brz-lh-xs-im-1_6 brz-css-upegr\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_6 brz-lh-xs-im-1_6 brz-css-mgghl\"><strong class=\"brz-cp-color1\">What advice would you give to the participants of the SSC?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_6 brz-lh-xs-im-1_6 brz-css-rkazo\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-tp-paragraph brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_6 brz-lh-xs-im-1_6 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-oqgnz\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">Go consistently your way and thereby use (potentially also shamelessly) the circumstance that humans from my generation 50+ and the generation before start understanding that it was them who brought the planet into this unpleasant condition in which it is nowadays.

It also helped us significantly to concretise and implement our idea. With the help of the SSC, a business model emerged from the idea, which had to be supported by a competitor analysis and a business plan. This gave us a very good introduction to our new task and laid important foundations for our future. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-ft-google brz-ff-raleway brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_6 brz-lh-xs-im-1_6 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-fzgyh\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-lg-300 brz-ft-google brz-ff-raleway brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_6 brz-lh-xs-im-1_6 brz-text-lg-justify brz-css-ciitd\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color1\">The contacts of the SSC were also helpful for us, e.g. to other fungus growers and to the FHNW, which is still supporting us one year later.

We have further developed our automated breeding box for grasshoppers and are proud that we can now very easily enable our customers to breed grasshoppers themselves. In concrete terms, this means that our boxes are already in place at a zoo and two farms, which breed grasshoppers of the highest quality themselves for their zoo animals and their chickens. We have also become successful in terms of grasshopper feed - agricultural by-products that would otherwise have been incinerated or disposed of in biogas plants. Through months of testing, we have been able to turn the sustainable by-products into a durable dry substrate that the grasshoppers like and that allows them to grow quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-text-lg-justify brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_6 brz-lh-xs-im-1_6 brz-fs-lg-16 brz-fs-sm-im-15 brz-fs-xs-im-15 brz-ls-lg-0 brz-ls-sm-im-0 brz-ls-xs-im-0 brz-ff-raleway brz-ft-google brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-css-rjvcv\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color2\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-text-lg-justify brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_6 brz-lh-xs-im-1_6 brz-fs-lg-16 brz-fs-sm-im-15 brz-fs-xs-im-15 brz-ls-lg-0 brz-ls-sm-im-0 brz-ls-xs-im-0 brz-ff-raleway brz-ft-google brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-css-ngnxm\"><strong class=\"brz-cp-color2\">To what extent did the Swiss Sustainability Challenge help you and support you on your journey?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-text-lg-justify brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_6 brz-lh-xs-im-1_6 brz-fs-lg-16 brz-fs-sm-im-15 brz-fs-xs-im-15 brz-ls-lg-0 brz-ls-sm-im-0 brz-ls-xs-im-0 brz-ff-raleway brz-ft-google brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-css-gcaci\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color2\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"brz-text-lg-justify brz-lh-lg-1_7 brz-lh-sm-im-1_6 brz-lh-xs-im-1_6 brz-fs-lg-16 brz-fs-sm-im-15 brz-fs-xs-im-15 brz-ls-lg-0 brz-ls-sm-im-0 brz-ls-xs-im-0 brz-ff-raleway brz-ft-google brz-fw-lg-300 brz-fw-sm-im-300 brz-fw-xs-im-300 brz-css-klljr\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color2\">The Swiss Sustainability Challenge has helped and supported us on various levels.
