Migros makes numerous contributions to strengthening social cohesion in Switzerland. Since 2021, the Migros Group’s social initiatives have been combined and communicated under one name: Migros Commitment.
Each year, Migros contributes more than CHF 160 million towards social causes. It creates a wide range of opportunities and launches bold initiatives in the areas of community, culture, education, health, technology and ethics, as well as climate and resources.
Since 2021, Migros has combined and communicated all its initiatives in this area under the name "Migros Commitment". These include Migros Culture Percentage, the Migros Pioneer Fund (formerly the Engagement Migros Development Fund) and the Migros Aid Fund.
In 2021, Migros Culture Percentage invested CHF 142 million in culture, society, education, leisure and business. The permanent institutions include the Gottlieb Duttweiler Institute (GDI), Migros Club School, Ferrovia Monte Generoso, the Migros Museum of Contemporary Art and the four "im Grünen" parks.
With the Migros Pioneer Fund, Migros extended its social commitment to other companies of the Migros Group in 2012 . CHF 17 million was made available in the reporting year (CHF 18 million spent).
The Migros Aid Fund has been supporting social and ecological development aid projects in Switzerland and worldwide since 1979. CHF 1 million is made available for this purpose each year.
