Impartial, Independent, and Transparent: Fair Future Foundation’s Principles for Lasting Change in Ultra-Rural Communities.
At Fair Future Foundation, impartial humanitarian aid and community-driven solutions are the cornerstones of our mission to transform ultra-rural lives.
Fair Future Foundation: Our Working Principles – Grounded in Humanity, Driven by Impact
At Fair Future Foundation, our work is guided by a deep sense of responsibility to address the real needs of the communities we serve. As a humanitarian organization founded in Switzerland, our principles are the foundation of every action we take, ensuring that we provide life-changing solutions where they are most needed.
Impartial and Inclusive Support for All
We serve communities in ultra-rural regions without discrimination—providing aid based solely on need. Our work focuses on the most vulnerable, ensuring that everyone, regardless of their background or circumstances, has access to clean water, medical care, and educational resources. Our commitment to impartiality guarantees that our support reaches the people who need it most, regardless of race, religion, or political affiliation.
“We believe in the power of impartiality and independence. Our work isn’t just about providing aid—it’s about empowering communities to thrive sustainably for generations to come.” — Alex Wettstein, CEO & Founder, Fair Future Foundation
Independence in All We Do
Fair Future operates independently from any political, religious, or economic interests. We rely on private donations from people who believe in our mission, ensuring our actions are guided solely by the needs of the communities we serve. By remaining financially and operationally independent, we have the freedom to focus on impactful, sustainable solutions that directly benefit those who need them.
Humanity at the Core of Our Actions
Every initiative we undertake is driven by a deep respect for human dignity. Whether it’s providing clean water through the #WaterConnections program, offering medical care with #PrimaryMedicalCare, or supporting children’s health through #ChildHealth, our work is always centered on improving lives and protecting communities from the threats of poverty and disease. Our efforts are built on the belief that every person deserves health, education, and opportunity.
Advocating for Those Without a Voice
We do more than provide services; we advocate for the communities we support. Our proximity to vulnerable populations allows us to witness firsthand the struggles they face, and we use this perspective to raise awareness about inequality, healthcare gaps, and the socio-economic challenges affecting them. We believe that neutrality should not mean silence, and we stand as advocates for change.
Transparency and Accountability to All
Fair Future is committed to maintaining transparency in our operations. With 93% of our donations going directly to our field programs, we ensure that every franc, euro, or dollar makes a real difference. We regularly evaluate and adapt our strategies to ensure the highest level of impact. Our donors, partners, and communities can trust that we uphold the highest standards of ethical and financial accountability.
