Schtifti our Love! Since the Foundation started first in 2003 in Switzerland, we’re big fans of this movement and the two founders, Roger Grolimund and Ernesto Schneider, teaching children to live and eat healthier, to do freestylesports, showing them what it does to life in general, to wellbeing, to joy! Together with an amazing team of specialists in different disciplines, such as skateboarding, breakdancing, capoera, freeskiing, schools all over Switzerland are visited, stories told, ambassadors presented, healthy food enjoyed, passion spread! All children are taken into consideration, applaused, while succeeding their first downhill on a skateboard, seen! The younger ones are helped by the bigger ones to step on to the ramp. Passions enflamed. We wonder how many children out of the 51’000 have else then begun the sport? A big focus is put on safety, and cooking tipps and freestyle tricks generously put at the kids disposition via the amazing Gorilla web and app. The Foundation has earned most of the possible to earn prices and awards in terms of social innovation such as the worldwide seif award, and the movement has greatly reached Germany and is planning to go to Austria, encountering a huge success wherever it holds its uplifting workshops. And yes, we’re proud of being so close to this Schtifti, its founder and Kathrin Steiger, CEO, to this light in the sky, who never puts down their arms, even if things are not always easy! Schtifti is in need of further companies which understand and sense this truly great and important potential that Schtifti holds and how much they contribute for a healthy future of our kids, schools, families and countries!
